This uses the aic0 driver so you must be using: controller aic0 at isa? port 0x140 bio irq 11 vector aicintr instead. Expect a performance hit if you exchange a 1542 with an aic6360 chip.

Make sure you have the additional devices created in /dev (do a "cd /dev ; ./MAKEDEV vty8" to make 8 ttyv* devices).

Since the four FreeBSD machines (with the possibility of two more coming in the summer) all run identical snapshots and XFree86, I thought it would be more economical to have the /usr/{include,local, share,src,X11R6} hierarchies served from one of the SGI. The rest of /usr, /var, /etc, and so on would of course be on local disks. Truly machine-specific files (like the X server binary, or the xdm config file) would be replaced by a link to the file in /etc. Are there any caveats I should beware of when moving such a large portion of the filesystem to an NFS server?

I did a 'file pkgname' on the SunOS (Netcom) box and on the FreeBSD box: SunOS claimed it was a 'tar' archive, while FreeBSD claimed it was a: gzip compressed data - deflate method - last modified: Wed Dec 31 16:00:00 1969, max compression os:Unix. Packages were gotten from the v2.0 packages directory. Packages tried: olvwm4.tgz, piewm.tgz, fvwm, xmille.tgz...

When I exit and return again the desktop is always in the original configuration. 2) What is the proper way to exit X-windows? I have used the exit option in the pulldown menu but that changes the color to black and white and I have to go to the login menu and type exit to leave. 3) How can I change the background color of X-windows? Can I have a bitmap like in Windows (dos). I see there is a directory with bitmaps but I am not sure how to use them. 4) I have a Orchid Kelvin video card with 2mg and a 15" Optiquest monitor. I am still unsure how the setup should be. I looked at the readme's at FTP.Free86.org but was still confused. Sometimes when I exit X-windows the display is garbled and there is a mirror image of the text. Thanks for your help.

But perhaps these has changed in X11R6. The best way to save the desktop is to use the fvwm window manager (compiled with the m4 preprocessor option). Then you are able to save your desktop with the SaveDesktop Module which comes with fvwm (save the information in ~/.fvwmdesk). It's really a nice toolkit.

I've got to FreeBSD machines (SNAP 4/12) one off which has a CDROM. Both machines have ether-net cards. NFS is running as a client and server on both machines. I first mount the cdrom locally on the /cdrom directory. Then on the other machine, I try to NFS mount the first machine's /cdrom directory. on machine with CD (beau) /etc/fstab /cdrom -ro mount_cd9660 /dev/cd0a /cdrom On other machine(merlot): mount beau:/cdrom /mnt I get an error message about /cdrom not being available.

I've been using it since I got 2.0 CD from WC. It worked fine for 2.0, since I've updated my code to 4/12 I get parity errors when the kernel probes the device. When I actually mount a CD I get a bunch of parity errors and then a message about to many errors and the logging stops. The disk is perfectly readable. I've install a bunch of packages without a problem. I'm just curious what the parity errors are all about. Anyone have a guess?

You can save the location, but not the state -- that is, the applications as they were started on the command line, but not what you did to them after they were started. This depends on applications that behave as they are supposed to within narrowly defined boundries. Applications are supposed to XInternAtom their startup command line arguments, and they are supposed to accept geometry specifications on the command line. There is a program in the ftp.x.org contrib directory that dumps this information to a .xinitrc file for the next time you start X. Can't rememeber the name, since I don't do things this way and few programs are as well behaved as they need to be. This is an X question, and isn't really FreeBSD specific. > 2) What is the proper way to exit X-windows? I have used the exit > option in the pulldown menu but that changes the color to black and > white and I have to go to the login menu and type exit to leave. I have no idea what you are talking about here; it is unclear to me as to whether you mean that you start X and when you exit, you expect to be logged out, or that you have to do several things to get the X server to shut down. If you aren't being auto-logged-out, the problem is that you aren't starting X in your .cshrc/.profile and putting an 'exit' following it. Just like when you exit 'vi' you aren't "automatically logged out". If it's that you have to do too much to get the X server to shut down, the X server exits when the last foreground process in the .xinitrc (usually there is one, and it's usually a window manager, though the default in the X sources is an xterm) exits. If you ensure that the last thing that's started is a foreground window manager, when you exit the window manager, the X server will exit as well. > 3) How can I change the background color of X-windows?

The backgroungd is specified for windows by using the -bg option; typically, only a desktop manager will allow backrounds in windows themselves. The main background can be set with either xsetroot (bitmaps/colors), xgifroot (an extra app that can do GIFs as backgrounds) or xv (it can do nearly any display file format as a background, with a choice of display processing options.

Put a larger delay in the switchback by invoking the x server with a sleep following the invocation. This is covered in the release notes. Other configuration problems should go to help or questions @xfree86.org, as noted in the release notes.

I checked about for rz/sz on the FreeBSD.org ftp site and was unable to find it. On the v2.0 CD distribution, the port is there BUT no distfiles entry under ports for rzsz* or *rz*, or any other variant. No package either. Third difficulty, on building ports/x11, I do a 'make clean', then a 'make all' from the ports/x11 dir. Everyhing is just fine until the build for olvwm4 starts: it dies at this point, unable to find Xview.tmpl and Xview.prog. Any help you can render on the above would be greatly appreciated.

I've got three machines here with ATI cards (one is labelled the "Winturbo PCI" and the other two are "Graphics Pro Turbo PCI", but all are Mach64 cards), and a bad config file normally should cause your computer to reboot. You are sure you have XFree86 3.1.1 and not 3.1? Are you using the latest patchlevel Mach64 driver (pl2)?

The GoodStuff module only shows the images for calculator and that like but no buttons! With other words I can klick on the images but nothing happens... I have the 2.0-950412-SNAP installed with the SVGA Xserver running. Everything else works ok - only some of the fvwm modules - esp. GoodStuff - don't work well... I downloaded the /usr/ports from some mirror and executed a `make fvwm' in the x11 directory followed by a `make install' in /usr/ports/x11/fvwm. So fvwm itself works. Even the pager works, eventhough I miss the ability to move windows and windows titles within the pager. I could use these features when I previously run Linux... It would be enough for me to know, that someone's running fvwm without these problems. Maybe there was a problem during compiling and I didn't recognised it or with the X installation on that snap?

I'm running 4/12 SNAP with a 1.2 G Western Digital IDE drive I just got last weekend. I used the FreeBSD 4/12 installation to fdisk the drive. I put 100M in the first partition for MSDOS and used the rest for FreeBSD. I've never had much luck using large drives in DOS because the DOS fdisk program is a dog. The one in the FreeBSD install is very clean. Someone should port it to dos. ;) Works great from DOS or BSD. The 1st 100 M DOS partition is so I could install OS-BS as a boot selector and play Doom.

The install procedure allows the use of NFS, UFS, CDROM, or DOS partition. The distribution can be gotten from ftp.cdrom.com. At this point in time you could grab 2.0.5A release which is better. I haven't yet. In a nut shell: 1) Get the bindist, boot.flp cpio.flop, rawrite code from cdrom.com. Make sure the bindist is is on the dos partition or on a NFS mountable disk somewhere on your network. 2) Make the floppies with the rawrite.exe program. You will make 2 floppies. One for booting, and the other for getting the basics on the disk. USE NEW/KNOWN GOOD DISKS. More problems booting have been caused by bad media. :) 3) Boot the machine with boot floppy. Select install from menu. 4) FDISK the 1.2 G drive. I assume it will be drive 0 aka /dev/wd0 aka DOS C: I would put 2 partitions. 100M or so for DOS and the rest for FreeBSD. Put the dos one first. Don't use any logical block addressing in you BIOS. I've had problems there. 5) DISKLABEL the disk. Follow the readme files for sizes for each slice. When I'm done editing and asigning my screen looks something like this: a 20 M newfs / b 64 M swap c freebsd size d whole disk e 20 M newfs /var f 100M newfs /home g 1000M newfs /usr (or what ever is left) h ??? mount /dos_c (imported from dos partition) This is all from my failing :) memory so some details may be off but you will see what I mean. 6) At this point select proceed.It will format and copy the minimal info to the BSD partition on the disk. Follow the directions on the screen to install the cpio disk. The system will install the minimal set and reboot off the harddisk. Remember to pull the cpio floppy when it tells you. 7) Next time when the system comes up it will ask where to find the rest of the install set. Here you need to select the form of media you downloaded the bindist set to. I generally download it to a UFS from a previous BSD install. My guess is you will have it on a DOS file system. I've never done it that way but I would be surprised if it didn't work. I have installed bindist off a NFS and UFS setup. Both worked like a charm. The 2.0 CD-ROM didn't go as smoothly. I've CC a copy of this back to the questions@freebsd.org group in case I've missed anything. I'm still a fairly new user to this software. In general I've been very impressed with it.

(This is more appropriately posted to -questions) What did the kernel print out when it saw the tape drive? If it recognized the tape then it already supports it. By default the kernel "counts" the SCSI devices so that the first tape it sees is st0. You can configure the kernel so that it devices stay in one place regardless of new devices if you want to; look in the LINT kernel configuration or try "man 4 scsi". -- Peter Dufault Real Time Machine Control and Simulation HD Associates, Inc.

I had alot of problems using the chap authentication on our university computers, but I eventually got it working... First of all, you need to have a file called chap-secrets in /usr/ppp (I think it was). Your root will tell you what thsi will look like. Then you start kermit from root, make the connection, and start the ppp-deamon on the remote computer. Then you shell back to your unix prompt and type pppd /dev/ttyd0 (or whatever device # your modem is) 38400 (or the speed Kermit is set for). Then the remote computer sends a request to your your computer asking for chap-secrets. Once that has been received by the remote host (takes a second) the network is up and running. Good luck!

I got mine used and I've haven't had any problems with it using both kinds of tapes. I've also done backups from it, but most of them were from the 6150 tapes. However, I lent the drive to a friend when I first got it and he did a couple backup/restore cycles with 6250's w/out any problems. I haven't used the drive much since I got the 4mm, but before that it got lots of use in the last 3 years.

Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Howdy, I am entirely new to FreeBSD and will apologize up front for asking anything silly or too trivial. I've just purchased the Walnut Creek FreeBSD 2.0 CR-ROM and I am having trouble getting it installed. Here is my problem. The initial installation process went somewhat painfully until I realized that I was suppose to type wd(1,a)/kernel instead of hd(1,a)/kernel when the boot prompt appears. Now I get to the point where it is ready to install the bindist files. The problem is FreeBSD is unable to see my CD-ROM, a Mitsumi Quad-speed IDE CD-ROM. My question is: how do I get the files from the CD-ROM to the hard drive when it can't mount /dev/mcd0a to /mnt? My system configuration: Gateway 2000 P5-90 1.44 3 1/2" FD 1.2 5 1/4" FD HD1: Western Digital 540MB (master) HD2: Maxter 1260MB (slave) slice 1: FreeBSD slice 2: Reserved slice 3: extended MS-DOS (both hard drives are connected to the PCI (primary) IDE connector on the motherboard) CD-ROM: Mitsumi Quad-Speed, model CRMC-FX400 (the CD-ROM is connected to the ISA (secondary) IDE connector on the motherboard; this CD-ROM is set to being a Master) Memory: 8MB Modem/Sound Card: Boca Research Sound Expression 14.4 VSp, combo modem and sound card. (I've also connected the CD-ROM to this card, which has a CD-ROM controller interface; this didn't work either) Graphics Card: ATI GX Mach 64 w/ 2MB PCI DRAM I noticed in the FreeBSD FAQ that the Mitsumi FX001D(16bit 2x Speed) is supported. Does this mean Quad-Speed CD-ROMs are not supported? If so, what kind of work-arounds exist? Thanks ahead of time for any assistance offered. I hate to think I'm screwed and have to give up on FreeBSD.

This gets asked often enough. As far as I know, there are 4 categories of choice: 1) Async Terminal Adaptors (TA's). These act like, and look a lot like modems. Even use AT commands, usually. There is no ISDN specfic support needed or supplied for these. Just use SLIP or PPP as you would with a modem. Some of these TA's will bond two B channels, some give you only one. All that I have seen are limited to 115.2kbps async. I have an Adtran ISU Express, and get ftp's of around 11k Bytes/sec using 2 B channels. Drawbacks: a) doesn't fully utilize the ISDN line (which can do 128kbps sync for 2 B channels). Also, no compression. b) the remote end needs to be async and use compatible protocols too, unless you have a TA that does some kind of conversion (some of the async TA's claim to do async to sync PPP conversion). c) the trend in TCP/IP over ISDN seems to clearly be towards sync PPP or sync ML-PPP for 2 B channels. Advantages: Cheap and easy. No OS specific support needed. 2) Ethernet routers/bridges. Some of these are either "single user" or "limited user", while others will handle a full Class C or B network. Seems to me that if you enable routing on your FreeBSD machine, you could get by with the cheaper single user hardware and let FreeBSD do the routing for you. Advantages: a) OS independent. No OS drivers needed. b) easy ??? Setup on some of these is reputed to be a little hard. But, from the standpoint of the FreeBSD machine, it should be a piece of cake. c) fast. Most (all?) do sync, and almost all do compression. d) compatibility. Most of these are moving towards standard sync PPP and sync ML-PPP per RFC's 1618 and RFC 1717 Disadvantages: Cost. Though this is relative. Street price on async TA's is $400-550, whereas single user ethernet router/bridges seem to be $750-1000 and coming down. 3) PC Cards. Here the problem is you need OS drivers for the card you want. Now, as well as for future releases of the OS and for upgrades to the cards (many of the cards have CPU's on them, with software either downloaded to the cards at boot or in PROM somewhere). Cards can give you the pricing of the async solution, with the performance and (coming soon) interoperability of the ethernet routers/bridges. So far none of the cards appears to do a simple emulation of an ethernet card supported by FreeBSD, though the Combinet 10X0 series apparently does a close emulation of an NE2000 adaptor. I understand a port of the Linux NE2000 code to the Combinet adaptor is underway (or maybe its released by now). As to FreeBSD driver support, you'll have to ask someone else. But, it was my impression that unless you're using one or two of the Eurpean ISDN cards that are mentioned in FreeBSD-current, you're out of luck. 4) Sync TA's. You can plug these into sync V35 or sync RS232 ports (depending on the features of the specific TA). Again, no OS specific code is needed for the ISDN TA, but obviously you need the sync adaptor and OS drivers for it, unless you just plug it into a router with appropriate WAN ports. Some of the async TA's will also do sync, for the same price. A note of caution. ISDN interoperability does not appear anywhere close to uniform. Whatever your ISP supports is what you'll almost certainly have to conform to. Just because you buy "ISDN hardware" doesn't mean it will work with anything on the far end of the ISDN line. In fact, chances are very good it won't, unless you have gone to the specific trouble of trying to ensure compatibility. And even then, unless the hardware on both ends is from the same manufacturer, I'd say you're taking a risk.

Dial in to the annex, get a dynamic IP-address 2. Dial in to the annex, log in to a machine that I'm SA of, set up PPP over there and get a static IP address When using option 2 I can use sup to acquire the -current sources. Using option 1 I can't set up a sup-connection... I get errors like timeouts, not reachable etc... All other things work quite OK, just supping won't. Some extra information that might help: when dialin in, I get a hostname like annex1s??.urc.tue.nl where ?? stands for the portnumber of the annex. Since there are 'world-access' dialin accounts, and 'local-access' accounts, this hostname has 2 IP-addresses: 131.155.12.(P+10) and 131.155.12.(P+137), where the latter can only access local hosts (131.155.*.* that is). One possibility we thought of was the following: A connection is made to the supfileserver... it tries to acquire the hostname and IP-address, and gets both addresses (P+10 and P+137) tries to compare the incoming address to the wrong possibility and can't connect back... Any one got a clue??? Would it work to add an extra alias name to the ppp0 device on my own machine? it can't be traceroute 50% of the time (because of the round robin reply methode of our nameserver) Any idea what the logfiles on freebsd.org look like in this case?

Yet more diatribe on modems... unfortunately not everything is really "Hayes compatible" like they claim, and factory default setting are usually not the settings you want. Also unfortunately, the settings you want are pretty zero-tolerance for driver/cable errors. 1) Use a straight cable The exception to this rule is if you know that the system does not correctly recover DCD loss in all states of CTS/RTS (Sun machines without the advanced serial driver option ($1500) that is actualy derived from the old Berknet serial driver will lock up, for instance, requiring a reset). If you know your system has this problem, pins 4+5 should be tied together (RTS/CTS: assumes 25 pin RS232C connector) in the cable hood on each end, with no wire going through. 2) Avoid ground loops. Any cable with two or more wires is a dipole based LC tank circuit. Since the RS232/434 standards use +/- 11 volt differentials about a digital ground (which may, in fact, not be 0 volts at all), this avoid most problems. The one remaining potential problem is if you connect pin 1 (Chassis ground: assumes 25 pin RS232C connector) on both ends, you have a potential to greate what is called a "ground loop", which will introduce current and therefore error in your connection (depending on how close to the comparator zero crossing boundry the signals from the line drivers normally are). To avoid this, pin 1 (all unused wires in the cable, actually) should be connected on the side with the best frame ground -- this is most frequently the computer. Doing this can reduce noise significantly and will avoid the ground loop problem (in effect, you are providing a farady cage for the cable). 3) Set the modem correctly A) DCD follows remote carrier B) On-to-off transition of DTR causes modem to go on hook and reset as if powered off-then-on. C) Modem recognizes commands D) Modem does *not* have in-band flow control turned on between the computer and the modem (in-band flow control is XON/XOF start/stop signalling). E) Modem does *not* have in-band flow control turned on between the modem and the remote mode. F) Command echo is off by default (a dialer can change this if necessary, but it should be temporary until the next reset by power cycle or on-to-off DTR). G) Result codes are on by default ("RING" "CONNECT" "OK", etc. are to be returned). H) Result codes are verbose by default (non-verbose result codes are typically unexpected by most dialer software). I) If it is settable, DCD should be raised *after* the connect message instead of before. The default for most Bell compliant modems is *after* (103/212 standards). J) Autoanswer should be enabled. The number of rings is irrelevent. Potential problems: A) Internal modems prequently do not have a 150 Ohm pull down resistor on the DCD level. This can cause problems in the disconnected state. For this reason, I always recommend external modems, where possible. B) Internal modems with discrete UARTs typically have the same problem with CTS/RTS. C) US Robotics Sportster 14.4 Fax modems are known to lock up when communicating at high data rates with modems that use the Rockwell 14.4/28.8 chipset. A firmware fix is available from US Robitcs if you have a problem with this. Newer US Robotics modems should not have this problem. D) Modems that use MNP, especially older modems manufactured by someone other than Microcomm, can not have MNP enabled and in-band flow control disabled (it will show as disabled but is implied by the use of MNP). This is because the manufacturers wanted to undercut Microcomm's prices, so they reduced the amount of RAM in the modem for buffering. If you have one of these modems, disable MNP or expect to be unable to send binary data without protocol quoting (ie: like Kermit). E) It is imperitive that you get the DTR signals set up correctly in the modem settings. Modems from several manufacturers (Avatek, for example) will not retrain the baud rate unless reset. The first caller will "stick" the baud for subsequent calls until the modem is reset. F) On a related note, if you are going to buy a serial board or terminal server, make sure it supports the modem control lines if you plan to use it for modems. G) A lightening arrestor is cheaper than a computer. H) If you have a Telebit modem, look up S53 in your manual before starting. I) If you use mgetty/vgetty, you will want to disable the autoanswer, since they react to the "RING" by sending an ATA command (Hayes modems). J) Locking your baud rate(between the modem and the computer) can be good. You won't need to go through the getty break switch sequence to get a login. K) Locking your baud rate can be bad. If you do lock your baud, be prepared for a delay in all control signals, like ^S, ^Z, ^Z, ^T, etc.. This is because you will have to wait for the modem buffers to flush, since they will fill in the process of baud rate matching. It can also be bad if you forget to disable the break switch rotor list for the baud rate in /etc/gettytab. It can really be bad if there are flow control problems in the driver. Most people like the locking feature. I personally hate hardware that lies to me.

I just noticed the info about the location of the mirrored FreeBSD source tree at ftp.funet.fi is incorrect in the MIRROR.SITES file. Currently it should read ftp://ftp.funet.fi/ftp/mirrors/ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD There is also a question I would like to ask. Just yesterday I started installing FreeBSD on a AMD486-100MHz machine with Aquarius-PCI mother board, a 1.2GB Western Digital hard disk, Mitsumi-4x CD-ROM, 3c509 Ethernet, Alps Membrane keyboard, and Diamond Stealth 64 with 2MB VRAM. Everything went smoothly during the fdisk, disklabel, and newfs etc. phase until the time the machine should have been rebooted from wd0. When I had removed the boot diskette from the drive and pressed the return key the machine just printed the message Rebooting... and seemingly hung there forever. Within the next 10 minutes nothing happened, and then I decided to try the reset button. Again the boot hung, though this time with the prompt Default: F? Apparently the machine did not read the keyboard correctly or it did not find the correct kernel image to load. With short intervals it only reprinted the same prompt again and again. Pressing the F-keys also caused the prompt to be reprinted but there was no more progress after that. Any ideas about what could be going wrong? Are there any certain modes that should be used by the BIOS to handle the keyboard or the disk at this time to make the boot code work? Cheers, // jau ------ / Jukka A.

First, is there some easy way to make 2.0.5 happy with the 1.1.5.1 disks? All of these disks were created with only FreeBSD on them. Whenever I attempt to access them I get numerous slice warnings/errors. Second, assuming I can get the partitioning sorted out w/o trashing the data on them, is the 2.0.5 ufs file system compatible with the 1.1.5.1 ufs? I know that symlinks have changed? Do the 1.1.5.1 symlinks work in 2.0.5? Finally, I've had some problems installing 2.0.5-ALPHA on the two systems that I have tried it on. Perhaps the most annoying one is that the extraction will hang if I try to install alot (like ``Everything'' or ``X-developers''). A minimal install didn't seem to have this problem. I don't believe its a network problem since I was doing an ftp install from another system here on my local ethernet, and the network was still fine. The most recent hang was during (at the end of?) installing compat20. I also had hangs while installing X-windows (I didn't install X-windows this last time, hoping to avoid the hang.) I also noticed that some of the X-windows packages could not be installed (seemed to be not found, perhaps a naming error).

Merry" Message-Id: <199506021511.LAA20575@rflab1.gtri.gatech.edu> Subject: 2.0.5A, AHA2842, DAT drive problem To: questions@FreeBSD.org Date: Fri, 2 Jun 1995 11:11:19 -0400 (EDT) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] Content-Type: text Content-Length: 3467 Sender: questions-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I'm having a bit of trouble with 2.0.5 Alpha, my tape drive, and my AHA2842...I was wondering if someone out there might have some idea about what I can do to get things working properly. Here's the general hardware info: Intel DX4-100 (Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x480 Stepping=0) VLB/ISA board, SiS chipset, AMI Winbios 32 megs of ram vlb ide card, 340 meg WD AC2340, 1 gig Micropolis 2112A Adaptec 2842 - id 0 - Quantum Atlas XP34300 (4.3 gig drive) - id 1 - NEC 3xe cdrom drive (external) - id 4 - Sony SDT-5000 DDS-2 DAT drive (external) 3c509 combo Sound Blaster 16 I'm having trouble restoring files from the DAT drive. When I try restoring (using tar) things go very slowly, and then if I use the hard drive (sd0) a bit while the tape operation is going, I get timeout errors from ahc driver. The strange thing is, the timeout errors say that _sd0_ timed out, not the tape drive. Well, once I got a timeout error saying that the tape drive timed out, but most of the time it is the hard drive. When the timeouts start happening, the light on the SCSI chain stays lit, and the system locks up. I haven't had any trouble at all with the hard drive when the tape drive is not in use, and the cdrom drive seems to work fine as well. So I think it would be a safe assumption that there's some sort of problem in the way the tape drive is being handled. I doubt this is a hardware problem, since I'm using this same setup under OS/2, and the tape drive, cdrom drive and hard drive all function flawlessly there. Both ends of the SCSI chain are terminated, the Atlas drive has active termination enabled. (the DAT drive on the other end only has a passive terminator, but again, it works fine under OS/2) One other minor annoyance is that tagged queueing doesn't work with the hard drive. When I tried booting a kernel with tagged queueing enabled, I just got a bunch of messages saying "Queue full" and the system couldn't mount sd0. Oh yeah, here are the boot messages from the ahc driver (this is without options AHC_TAGENABLE): ahc1: reading board settings ahc1: 284x Single Channel, SCSI Id=7, aic7770 >= Rev E, 4 SCBs ahc1: Using Edge Triggered Interrupts ahc1: Downloading Sequencer Program...Done ahc1 at 0x1000-0x10ff irq 11 on eisa slot 1 ahc1: Probing channel A ahc1 waiting for scsi devices to settle ahc1: target 0 synchronous at 10.0MB/s, offset = 0xf (ahc1:0:0): "Quantum XP34300 55B1" type 0 fixed SCSI 2 sd0(ahc1:0:0): Direct-Access 4101MB (8399520 512 byte sectors) ahc1: target 1 synchronous at 5.0MB/s, offset = 0xf (ahc1:1:0): "NEC CD-ROM DRIVE:500 1.0" type 5 removable SCSI 2 cd0(ahc1:1:0): CD-ROM cd present.[216477 x 2048 byte records] ahc1: target 4 synchronous at 5.0MB/s, offset = 0xf (ahc1:4:0): "SONY SDT-5000 3.02" type 1 removable SCSI 2 st0(ahc1:4:0): Sequential-Access density code 0x13, 512-byte blocks, write-enabled One other thing, / is on wd0, everything else is on sd0. This is the first time I've been able to put FreeBSD on this system. Everything up to and including the 4/12 SNAP wouldn't quite work with the AHA 2842. Other than this one problem, I'm really impressed with 2.0.5. The install is a lot better than the 2.0 install. I hope I've included enough information for a diagnosis of the problem. If not, let me know and I'll send along whatever is needed. Thanks, Ken -- Kenneth Merry ken@rflab1.gtri.gatech.edu Disclaimer: I don't speak for GTRI, GT, or Elvis.

This allows tagged queuing to many Seagate and Fujitsu drives, but I haven't tried the Atlases yet. The main patch is really only two lines, but the rest is support for the aic7850 controllers and some other code/printf clean up. Let me know how it does. I've left AHC_DEBUG turned on so hopefully it may tell us more about your problem #1 above. > >Ken >-- >Kenneth Merry >ken@rflab1.gtri.gatech.edu >Disclaimer: I don't speak for GTRI, GT, or Elvis. -- Justin T.

It hangs with the message: "Loading root floppy from t_rex:/disk9/dkelly/2.0.5-ALPHA" Alt-F2's last comment is "DEBUG: Generating /etc/fstab file" Nosing around I saw the message suggesting there was a debugging shell on console 4... Oh yes! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Maybe it will do some good in this instance. Sure enough, /nfs is a mount of the directory described above. And I can happily browse around in t_rex. "df -k" lists my filesystems. An "ls /mnt" says /mnt isn't there. Same holds true for "/mnt/*" But doggone, /nfs works just peachy. Maybe I ought to run diskless? Checking again, it says /mnt is /dev/wd0a. Hmm. My FreeBSD stuff is supposed to be on slice 2, /dev/wd0s2a, b for swap, f for /usr, g for /usr/src. All but / seem right. The first slice is (was) supposed to be a DOS partition. It appears ok. I totally deleted my old FreeBSD FDISK partitions and started over with this installation.

The first ( and major ) one is that the host that will do the serving of the files is on a different subnet from the ones I want to boot - the probelm here is that the router of the novell lan the client is sitting in is routing all bootp requests to the bootp server of capus :( so the server never sees them. While I can set all th values for ip's and hosts manually, the value of the gateway is unsettable. This results in the phenomen that the client (not getting the name of the gateway from the server (for some reason, the standard telnet bootps served by the bootpserver are not good enough for it) cannot contact the tftp server. Sugggestions ? The server I hope to use is a FreeBSD machine itself.. Thanks for Any Ideas..

They use a few modems with MacTCP and MacPPP to dial up to an Internet provider, run Netscape and the like, and get e-mail using Eudora. They want to get more involved on the 'net, to the tune of getting a permanent link (ISDN line) to an Internet Service Provider, and using some form of Unix box... My current plan is to take a PC with 16Mb+ main memory, 1Gb SCSI disk and put FreeBSD (2.OR or 2.0.5R) on it. Add in one ISDN card and one network card. As I understand it, the PC can then run a PPP client to connect to the ISP over the ISDN line. The PC can then also run a PPP server to allow the Macs to connect to it. All incoming e-mail will be stored on the PC, with the Macs using Pop3 to retrieve it. The PC will firewall off the rest of the company network from the Internet, and will proxy things like WWW requests. Anyone know how feasible this is using FreeBSD? Any gotchas that are going to jump up and bite me at some point in time? Is anyone doing anything similar at the moment?

Some strange things are happening, however, that I'm not sure how to correct. I execute ppp in -auto mode so it should bring the link up and down as required. If the timeout value causes the link to go down, however, after awhile, the default route information is lost and ppp never 'wakes back up' to process outgoing PPP packets so I end up having to kill the process, start it back up again, etc... Does this happen for other people running iijppp? Anybody know how to correct this? Maybe I'm not adding the correct route information. Here are the important files: ----- BEGIN FILE: /etc/ppp/ppp.conf # Default setup.

Boots up nicely & now notices the 850MB WDC drive. 1) Goes into the first screen (but some of the .hlp files are missing or was that intentional?) 2) I plan to ftp to a local machine, so I choose options and the menu option ftp userpass and enter the info. But when I get out of the menu and get back in, the option is no longer checked. The menu says press F1 for more help on these options, but pressing F1 does nothing. 3) Now I go to "Proceed" and then the partition screen. Partitioning is easy, but now I am faced with a dilemma. The drive I using for FreeBSD is a 540MB Conner (Drive D if it was in DOS). Do I set the boot flags for both partitions on wd1? Again, no slice.hlp to help me. Label and distributions are self-explanatory. 4) I choose cuaa1, and enter the network info. Next, I choose Install and get the boot manager screen. If I leave MBR untouched, the system ALWAYS hangs with the error: "Fatal Error: Invalid variable format: - PRESS ANY KEY TO REBOOT" If I chose standard for the boot manager, then I don't get that error. 5) So now if in another session, and I choose standard, it sometimes gives me an error about a read only root device (at the point of no return prompt). 6) Okay, next it asks me out PPP, and I choose that option. Okay... here's where things get a bit hairy... We have 4 vttys I believe, and the third has the ppp program started. If the ppp ever hangs or if I type close, the whole vtty is hung. So then I hop over to the vtty via ALT-F4 and run ppp. Anyway, it connects one way or another. I just wish this was like some of the snapshots which gave us an option of manually doing the ftp to a local directory. But that seems to be gone or am I mistaken? 7) So with the PPP connection working, it successfully grabs the root.flp image. Then it tries to grab the bin stuff but can't find them because I left them in bin.aa etc format. The install script looks for bin/bin.tgz .... Hmmmm.... I believe the same is true for des/des.tgz Anyway, not a major problem... so I just joined the .xx files together. 8) Oh yeah, there's a tendency for the install script to say installation complete etc when it hits an error. Then I notice that the serial PPP link for some reason just hangs. And anything I type in vty 3 just echoes back to the screen but hangs. So I hop over to vty4 and connect the ppp again. 9) Now the install program starts getting the files... but unfortunately, it hangs part way through... oh well... So I check vtty 4, and the ppp program dumped me back to #. So I restart the ppp connection... and it goes okay for a while, but then hangs again. Now I suspect his could be caused by flow control... Or is rtscts flow control automatically set using ppp? I remember pppd use to give that as an option. Well, any help is appreciated.
