https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D209540 Bug ID: 209540 Summary: Partitioning and USB Sticks Product: Base System Version: 10.3-RELEASE Hardware: amd64 OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: misc Assignee: freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: axel.kloth@ssrlabs.com CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org CC: freebsd-amd64@FreeBSD.org I need to configure an OS such that all OS-related files are on a set of di= sks A and all user data is on a set of disks B. This is not up for discussion, = or whether it makes sense, it is just what the requirements are. No matter wha= t I try, it is not achievable. I need GRUB, OS, swap and everything else relate= d to FreeBSD on a set A and everything else including /home and /usr on a set B. Also, the build times are excessive. I tried and failed to build KDE on X11, and after 27 hours on a 32 core 144 GB RAM system the build failed. SAMBA w= as built, but it took over 30 minutes. Building VirtualBox took over 90 minute= s, until it failed with a very descriptive Error 1. The instructions in the documentation on how to mount a USB memory stick (as root) are incorrect as well and non-workable. The commands posted in the documentation have nothin= g to do with the actual commands and even man pages suggest a different syntax a= nd option set. Trying to build the Adaptec Storage Manager resulted in utter failure as well. The source could be retrieved and the ASM and the drivers validated, but the build simply never terminated. In general, I find that t= he documentation has deteriorated a lot since version 5.4 which I used to run = (and I just shut down a server from that time that had never failed). --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
