Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-stable@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hi ! I saw in a commit log from Joerg, that he does some fixes to the fixit floppy generation. Don't know exactly what fixes. But today I tried again, to "refresh" my filesystems, by backing up everything using dump. Then I wanted to newfs and restore the filesystems from tape using the fixit floppy. But both, the one from 2.1.6 and from 2.2-ALPHA are still broken. I got the floppies fresh from a FreeBSD ftp site... Here my results, what's still going wrong. I think this should be fixed. I have no idea, what's really going wrong ... why ... see later: fixit# mt status /dev/nrst0: no such file or directory fixit# mt -f /dev/rst0 status: 0x00 Blocksize variable ... etc ... OK fixit# mt -f /mnt2/dev/nrst0 status: 0x00 Blocksize variable ... etc ... OK The device nrst0 is only present on the fixit floppy, under /mnt2. The devices for my harddisk partitions are missing. The MAKEDEV script is located in /mnt/dev/MAKEDEV fixit# cd /mnt2/dev fixit# sh MAKEDEV sd0s3e expr: not found expr: not found expr: not found bad unit for disk in: sd0s3e(unit=,slice=,part=) fixit# ed MAKEDEV /PATH d w q fixit# sh MAKEDEV sd0s3e /mnt2: write failed, file system full Memory fault /mnt2: write failed, file system full Memory fault bad unit for disk in: sd0s3e(unit=,slice=,part=) No space ???? fixit# df -i Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity iused ifree %iused Mounted on mfs_root 1369 1114 255 81% 186 196 49% / /dev/fd0 1095 762 333 70% 507 67 88% /mnt2 These are exactly the things I did using the 2.1.6 fixit floppy. The same happened using the 2.2-ALPHA fixit floppy. The only difference is, that the 2.2-ALPHA floppy had an vi and an ed. The 2.1.6 boot/fixit floppy had only and ed, vi was missing. Using vi to edit MAKEDEV wasn't possible, because of "no space on filesystem". I tried to fixit# rmdir /tmp and to do a fixit# ln -s mnt2/tmp /tmp to workaround this, but no difference, it's only possible to 'hack' MAKEDEV with ed. Well, I see no possibility to restore a crashed system :-( What might be ok is a New Installation of a minimal FreeBSD System. But what then ? Boot single user and newfs / and restore it after that ???? Hmmm. Looks like one has to do the ugly thing to overwrite over the filesystems ... But who guarantees, that sh MAKEDEV is running on the minimal system ?! ;-) Tricky situation. a) Why does df -i report enough space, and something is reporting to few space .... ?!?! b) What now ? Ignore this ? Please no. This isn't "stable" behaviour. And it's not ok for 2.2 RELEASE as well. - -- andreas@klemm.gtn.com /\/\___ Wiechers & Partner Datentechnik GmbH Andreas Klemm ___/\/\/ Support Unix -- andreas.klemm@wup.de pgp p-key http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/~bal/pks-toplev.html >>> powered by <<< ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/Printing/aps-491.tgz >>> FreeBSD <<< -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBMpjII/MLpmkD/U+FAQFfywQAnRgSfjUL5m/gW/YYmG/O3DKNoobIpS40 rd7UOP7X81RS/zYcx7jCRUzNgjNCe3pTZe3cd550cp/jQlE4v9gkbrL9XbuEcgX1 4YUtnSiiTgFRAs01PRUjbiDNvwhimDouMzvXRqsQiefJuF39ONC5cK52RszUAz7+ Xq5l6MRw3/s= =/h0M -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- From owner-freebsd-stable Thu Nov 28 01:26:47 1996 Return-Path: owner-stable Received: (from root@localhost) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id BAA16037 for stable-outgoing; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 01:26:47 -0800 (PST) Received: from david.siemens.de (david.siemens.de [146.254.1.1]) by freefall.freebsd.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id BAA16023 for ; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 01:26:44 -0800 (PST) Received: from salomon.mchp.siemens.de (salomon.mchp.siemens.de [139.23.33.13]) by david.siemens.de (8.8.0/8.8.0) with ESMTP id KAA10708 for ; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 10:23:03 +0100 (MET) Received: from curry.zfe.siemens.de (root@curry.zfe.siemens.de [146.180.31.23]) by salomon.mchp.siemens.de (8.8.2/8.8.0) with ESMTP id KAA26948 for ; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 10:26:41 +0100 (MET) Received: from server.us.tld (server.us.tld [192.168.16.33]) by curry.zfe.siemens.de (8.8.3/8.8.3) with ESMTP id KAA21373 for ; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 10:26:40 +0100 (MET) Received: from printfix.us.tld (printfix.us.tld [192.168.21.31]) by server.us.tld (8.8.3/8.8.3) with ESMTP id KAA20966 for ; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 10:26:40 +0100 (MET) Received: (from andre@localhost) by printfix.us.tld (8.8.3/8.8.2) id KAA06588 for freebsd-stable@freebsd.org; Thu, 28 Nov 1996 10:26:40 +0100 (MET) From: Andre Albsmeier Message-Id: <199611280926.KAA06588@printfix.us.tld> Subject: rwhod can't create files To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Date: Thu, 28 Nov 1996 10:26:40 +0100 (MET) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL28 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-stable@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi *, there is an interesting problem with 2.1.6.1: After upgrading from 2.1.5 to 2.1.6.1 the rwhod doesn't work anymore. Or, to be more precisely, it can't create new files. The permissions of /var/rwho are (as set by make world): drwxrwxr-x 2 bin daemon 512 Nov 28 07:49 rwho/ the files are deleted and when I start rwhod, I get: Nov 28 09:12:35 4D:linkfix rwhod[5729]: whod.linkfix: Permission denied When I change it to: drwxrwxr-x 2 daemon daemon 512 Nov 28 09:14 rwho/ it works. I have looked into rwhod.c and found that rwhod switches to user daemon and group daemon so both /var/rwho should work... Any ideas ? Thanks Andre
