Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there! I like to install FreeBSD 2.2.7 (2.2.8) and 3.0 on the same disc. Because the FreeBSD boot loader looks for the first compatibility slice, it's only possible to boot from the first installed release (first slice). I have tried to change the fdisk information for the first slice (2.2.7) temporarly from BSD to FAT, then it was possible to boot from the 3.0 release. This is not a very useable workaround because after this, I've to restore the complete disklabel for the first slice to boot from it. Any other ideas? fdisk output: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 63, size 2088387 (1019 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ sector 1/ head 1; end: cyl 129/ sector 63/ head 254 The data for partition 2 is: sysid 165,(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 2088450, size 2088450 (1019 Meg), flag 0 beg: cyl 130/ sector 1/ head 0; end: cyl 259/ sector 63/ head 254 disklabel output for partition 1 and 2 are identical: a: 65536 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 4*) b: 524288 65536 swap # (Cyl. 4*- 36*) c: 2088387 0 unused 0 0 # (Cyl. 0 - 129*) e: 65536 589824 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 36*- 40*) f: 1433027 655360 4.2BSD 0 0 0 # (Cyl. 40*- 129*) Regards Mike /\/\ichael Ranner - Michael.Ranner@netway.at - webmaster@mariazell.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Homepage: http://www.netlounge.at/mranner/ Mariazell Online: http://www.mariazell.org/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * Real Programmers work for Los Alamos National Laboratory, writing atomic bomb simulations to run on Cray YMP supercomputers. * Real Programmers work for the National Security Agency, decoding Russian transmissions. * Real Programmers are at work for Boeing designing the operating systems for cruise missiles. ------------------------ END OF TRANSMISSION ------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message --------------End of forwarded message------------------------- /\/\ichael Ranner - Michael.Ranner@netway.at - webmaster@mariazell.org ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Homepage: http://www.netlounge.at/mranner/ Mariazell Online: http://www.mariazell.org/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * Real Programmers work for Los Alamos National Laboratory, writing atomic bomb simulations to run on Cray YMP supercomputers. * Real Programmers work for the National Security Agency, decoding Russian transmissions. * Real Programmers are at work for Boeing designing the operating systems for cruise missiles. ------------------------ END OF TRANSMISSION ------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Sun Dec 6 20:08:53 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id UAA11799 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 20:08:53 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from n4hhe.ampr.org (tnt1-239.HiWAAY.net [208.147.147.239]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id UAA11781 for ; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 20:08:50 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dkelly@n4hhe.ampr.org) Received: from n4hhe.ampr.org (localhost.ampr.org [127.0.0.1]) by n4hhe.ampr.org (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id VAA27536 for ; Sun, 6 Dec 1998 21:19:57 -0600 (CST) (envelope-from dkelly@n4hhe.ampr.org) Message-Id: <199812070319.VAA27536@n4hhe.ampr.org> X-Mailer: exmh version 2.0.2 2/24/98 To: Freebsd-Stable@FreeBSD.ORG From: David Kelly Subject: Re: Re-phrase of simple (?dumb) q. about ports In-reply-to: Message from Mike Holling of "Sat, 05 Dec 1998 17:04:41 PST."

I have had problems over the years with the current ports and older -stable but almost all of those were cured by checking out the latest -stable version of /usr/src/share/mk and installing it. Speaking of which, "cd /usr/ports; make clean" breaks somewhere on my 2.2.7-stable machine this week.

I finally got around to compiling a non-ppbus kernel, and the old lpt driver works flawlessly with my hardware/software. The ppbus drivers work flawlessly with the vpo driver. The ppbus nlpt driver, however, just stutters and stalls. I think I have pretty conclusively ruled out pilot error on this problem.

Now the kernel.help file you could cp it from your /stand directory becuase a copy of that file lives their. You probably removed a few to many files when upgrading from 2.2.5 to 2.2.8.

Since this drive doesn't support direct booting, I created bootup floopy disk using fixit floppy image from distribution. I put my custom kernel on this floppie compiled with option "config  kernel root on da0c", where da0c is my Zip Drive interface. So I put other system files on zip, connect it all and try to boot my floppy. First time it didn't working and after spending some time on reading man I found that I need to specify "-r" option on boot prompt (this option tells the kernel to mount as / partition specified on compile time rather than fd0 from which it actually booted). Ok it works now, however when I try to automate this process by creating boot.config file on my floppy with line "fd(0,a)kernel -r" this does nothing i.e. kernel after that defaulting to fd0c instead of da0c.

The >> SERK says it is unsupported on FreeBSD, but who can believe MS docs? >> So does this thing work or not? >> Yes it works, the apache{12-3}-fp port will allow you to install a rootweb, userwebs, and virtual webs at installation. To install userwebs after installation use: 1. log into the web server as root 2. change to the /usr/local/frontpage/currentversion/bin directory 3. Run fpsrvadm.exe as follows: ./fpsrvadm.exe -o install -p 80 -web \~ To install virtual webs after installation use: Creating a New Virtual Server on UNIX 1.. Create a new UNIX account for the user. 2.. Create a content root and configuration file area. For example, /usr/local/www/newuser/content and /usr/local/www/newuser/conf. 3.. Create a new virtual server for the new account. Consult your Web server documentation for details. 4.. Run the fpsrvadm utility to install the FrontPage Server Extensions on the new virtual server. For example: fpsrvadm -o install -t apache-fp -h -u -pw -p -xUser -xGroup 5.. Chown the web appropriately. Using the sample command line above, you can do this at the same time you install the FrontPage Server Extensions, using the -xUser and -xGroup options. Otherwise, use the chown option of fpsrvadm. For example: fpsrvadm -o chown -h -p -xUser -xGroup Scot To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Wed Dec 9 11:33:00 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id LAA17933 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 11:33:00 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from hp9000.chc-chimes.com (hp9000.chc-chimes.com [206.67.97.84]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id LAA17906 for ; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 11:32:57 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from billf@chc-chimes.com) Received: from localhost by hp9000.chc-chimes.com with SMTP (1.39.111.2/16.2) id AA188680845; Wed, 9 Dec 1998 08:40:45 -0500 Date: Wed, 9 Dec 1998 08:40:45 -0500 (EST) From: Bill Fumerola To: Roger Hall Cc: FREEBSD-STABLE@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: Re: apache-fp In-Reply-To: <2C10B557AEBDD011872500A0C933CDDB4D87FE@mail.esigroup.com> Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I believe I committed a change from the Maintainer that fixes this problem, please update your ports tree.

I believe its got something to do with bash forking. Try; ps aux > foo ps aux | cat > foo ps aux | cat | cat > foo Notice that the number of "31Dec69" bash processes corresponds to the number of pipes. Also notice that the cat processes are not listed. I cannot duplicate this with sh or csh. I notice that pdksh will behave the same as bash. Pdksh and bash are dynamically linked while sh and csh are statically linked. I suspect that dynamic linking causes fork() to be "slower" thereby allowing a window of opportunity to see the shell listed in a ps listing before the process structures have been completely set up. This can be proven by: (sleep 1; ps aux) | cat | cat | egrep 'cat|bash' or (echo foo; ps aux) | cat | cat | egrep 'cat|bash' Notice that the "31Dec69" processes go away and ps now runs after the fork() has completed. Without looking at the kernel source (and one of the FreeBSD wizards can correct me here), I suspect that 4.4BSD is optimizing fork() by allowing the parent to continue to run without having completely set up the child while buffering output in the pipe until it is requested by the child. It is an optimum way to manage throughput, with a minor drawback. Interestingly enough dynamically linked shells don't exhibit this under Solaris, DUNIX, or Linux. Can this mean that 4.4BSD's fork() has better throughput than the others? If that's the case, it's probably a small price to pay.

For the long filenames you would use rock ridge extension, although I don't think the install CD needs long file names. To make it bootable depends on your software.. The stuff I've seen for Windows asks you to insert a disk in drive A.. ho hum.. You could write the disk image from the CD (in this case its floppies/boot.flp) onto a disk and then put it in your floppy drive and get the Windows software to read it..

Nothing really, but since mkhybrid is a superset of mkisofs you may as well use it.. Actually, mkhybrid supports arbitrary tree grafting which is quite neat, but for the above mentioned application it would be irrelevant. --- Daniel O'Connor software and network engineer for Genesis Software - http://www.gsoft.com.au "The nice thing about standards is that there are so many of them to choose from." -- Andrew Tanenbaum To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Fri Dec 11 01:02:25 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id BAA08433 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 01:02:25 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from ymcpc0.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp (ymcpc0.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp [133.24.116.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id BAA08424 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 01:02:23 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from kuruto@ymcpc0.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp) Received: (from kuruto@localhost) by ymcpc0.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp (8.8.8/3.6W-FUNA_00) id SAA04735 for freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 18:02:10 +0900 (JST) Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1998 18:02:10 +0900 (JST) From: Ryou Yazaki Message-Id: <199812110902.SAA04735@ymcpc0.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp> To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG auth 6086629f subscribe freebsd-stable \ kuruto@ymcpc0.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Fri Dec 11 15:18:21 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id PAA13839 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 15:18:21 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.itnnet.com (mail.itninc.net [208.195.144.7]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id PAA13834 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 15:18:19 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from tanguy@itninc.net) Received: from relay.itnnet.com (relay.itnnet.com [208.195.144.14]) by mail.itnnet.com (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id PAA17577 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 15:18:10 -0800 (PST) Message-Id: <199812112318.PAA17577@mail.itnnet.com> Received: from [10.0.2.34] by relay.itnnet.com via smtpd (for mail.itninc.net [208.195.144.7]) with SMTP; 11 Dec 1998 20:39:14 UT X-Sender: tdecourson@mail.itnnet.com X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0.2 Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1998 15:18:36 -0800 To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG From: Tanguy de Courson Subject: test Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG this is a test email cause i have not gotten anything from this list as of yet although i subscribed. perhaps its jsut dead or you guys are all lazy bastards ----------------------------------------------------------- Tanguy 'Ripper' de Courson - Internet Programmer ('Perl') at ITN myneid - fool 'o fools, gnome 'o gnomes "schalin666: Okay.

You seem to think that cpu values have to be high when using top. normaly those values should be close to zero, because this means that the deamons are not sucking cpu power leaving enough cpu cycles for user apps.

I noticed this while updating my /etc files from 2.2.7 to 2.2.8. In my repository, everything in /home/ncvs/src/etc/Attic has mode 0444, so /usr/src/etc/daily, weekly, and monthly checked out as 0644. I updated /etc with these new versions, and thus they didn't have execute permission. Well, OK, it was easily fixed. But I am concerned that there may be other shell scripts that have the wrong permissions. 1. First, cvs does use the mode of the ,v file to set the mode of the checked out file? 2. Should /home/ncvs/src/etc/Attic/daily have mode 0444? Is this generally true of Attic files? Or, is my repository messed up? 3. Does cvsup check and set the modes on ,v files when fetching the entire repository? (And thus whatever the permissions are, they originate from the master repository?) I don't think I'm doing anything odd with my repository. I'm using cvsup 15.4.2 with this cvsup file: *default prefix=/home/ncvs *default base=/var/cvsup *default host=cvsup3.freebsd.org *default delete use-rel-suffix compress cvs-all release=cvs --Mark Krentel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Fri Dec 11 18:39:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id SAA03293 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 18:39:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from mail.mtlusa.com (dc-35-252.ici.net [207.180.35.252]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id SAA03287 for ; Fri, 11 Dec 1998 18:39:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from madlove@cs.umb.edu) Received: by mail.mtlusa.com from localhost (router,QMProSrv V2.6); Fri, 11 Dec 1998 21:39:21 -0500 Received: by mail.mtlusa.com from wwidz.ne.mediaone.net (24.128.214.81::mail daemon,QMProSrv V2.6); Fri, 11 Dec 1998 21:39:19 -0500 X-Sender: madlove@cs.umb.edu X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Pro Version 4.0 Date: Fri, 11 Dec 1998 21:56:02 -0500 To: freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG From: "Luke H."

Just copying the files to /etc isn't the best way to install them. In general, it's risky to depend on execute permissions being set properly for checked-out sources.

I had been merging /etc with /usr/src/etc by hand, but I'm pleased to learn that it's easier and more organized than I had thought. And indeed, Nik Clayton's tutorial, "Upgrading FreeBSD from source", explains the procedure. (I'm blushing.) So, is that the policy in the repository that none of the ,v files need special permission because something else will set them before they're used? I knew that permissions on the binaries are whacked during install, but I was worried that a shell script might be checked out and used before it was installed. So, not a problem, huh? You guys are just waaay too organized. :-) --Mark Krentel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-stable Sat Dec 12 21:35:35 1998 Return-Path: Received: (from majordom@localhost) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) id VAA14503 for freebsd-stable-outgoing; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 21:35:35 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG) Received: from TripleCrown.Aldridge.com (TripleCrown.Aldridge.com [206.180.151.1]) by hub.freebsd.org (8.8.8/8.8.8) with ESMTP id VAA14498 for ; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 21:35:33 -0800 (PST) (envelope-from dlac@aldridge.com) Received: from aldridge.com (america.aldridge.com [206.180.139.33]) by TripleCrown.Aldridge.com (8.9.1/8.9.0) with ESMTP id XAA15756 for ; Sat, 12 Dec 1998 23:35:27 -0600 (CST) Message-ID: <3673521A.89A901F0@aldridge.com> Date: Sat, 12 Dec 1998 23:35:22 -0600 From: "David L.
