FWIW, I installed it onto a virgin 3.2-RELEASE system along with a bunch of other stuff, and while it took me some fiddling to get it going (as in realizing I had to run "linux" and figuring out the Byzantine user installation stuff), it seems to work OK (I have no experience with that kind of thing--my native language is vi and troff--so I'm not in much of a position to really exercise it). BTW, what would be the best kind of overview/introductory text to use to get users going with StarOffice?

I don't know anything about vnodes, but I've puzzled over that cryptic errmessage from mount before. It's telling you that you don't have a proper file system. You need the msdos equivalent of newfs ("format" in DOSspeak?) before the mount command. Beware, I'm only guessing.

Well, actually doscmd_C_drive is a valid FAT file system. In fact, I dd'ed it off a real disk into a file, and doscmd runs happily with it. Question is, can the vnode system handle MSDOS/FAT? For now, I just copy the files inside doscmd from the DOS prompt by pointing its D: to a UFS disk: assign hard /wd4tmp/doscmd/doscmd_C_drive 65 255 63 assign D: -ro /c but it would be useful to be able to copy files into/out of the doscmd file system (doscmd_C_drive file) w/o firing up doscmd.

Well, it certainly orta, as vn really knows only about blocks, not filesystems. And the "make release" process requires the use of the vn driver to build boot floppies.

Whenever you specify the --root option to rpm, it does a chroot. But lets aproach this differently: Am I right in saying that we can solve the problem when we let the emulator create (and only create) files under / by default and not under /compat/linux? What gets broken if we do? Is there a way we can have more control over this behavior, such as with file modes? Or can we settle with this behavior for only temp directories (and how to implement it)? Don't get me wrong. I prefer to not have any temporary directories under /compat/linux, but we must not rush this thing and change everything only to find out that it breaks more than it fixes. -- Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ Amsterdam, The Netherlands tel: +31 20 4200655 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-emulation Wed Jun 16 12: 9:25 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org Received: from alpo.whistle.com (alpo.whistle.com [207.76.204.38]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id AC7A8155D5 for ; Wed, 16 Jun 1999 12:09:23 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ambrisko@whistle.com) Received: from whistle.com (crab.whistle.com [207.76.205.112]) by alpo.whistle.com (8.9.1a/8.9.1) with ESMTP id MAA11812; Wed, 16 Jun 1999 12:09:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from ambrisko@localhost) by whistle.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) id MAA31277; Wed, 16 Jun 1999 12:08:31 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from ambrisko) From: Doug Ambrisko Message-Id: <199906161908.MAA31277@whistle.com> Subject: Re: Matlab 5.3 In-Reply-To: <3767E6DE.9DA70795@scc.nl> from Marcel Moolenaar at "Jun 16, 99 08:03:10 pm" To: marcel@scc.nl (Marcel Moolenaar) Date: Wed, 16 Jun 1999 12:08:30 -0700 (PDT) Cc: freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4ME+ PL29 (25)] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Marcel Moolenaar writes: | Don't get me wrong.

Printing for example, calling lpr from within acroread calls the FreeBSD version. It gets called with a temp. file in /tmp/, but if acroread writes it in /compat/linux/tmp/ then lpr can't find it. So if /compat/linux/tmp exists then it causes trouble. People have ran into the problem here a couple of times when we first got acroread running a long time ago. Things may have changed since then.

Which can probably be solved by installing a Linux native lpr. What I mean is, there are two approaches: 1) modify the emulation as a whole (module and/or /compat/linux tree) so we fix a Linux/FreeBSD boundary case or 2) install the Linux tool and thus remove the boundary (and possibly create a new boundary case, of course). > People have ran into the problem here a couple of times when we first got > acroread running a long time ago.

We had problems in 2.2.x when Linux emulation was out-of-date and for sites like mine (with constant presure to move to Linux) having rock solid FreeBSD-RELEASE with most advanced Linux emulation (only in -CURRENT?) is strongly desirable? How can I/we solve this dilemma? Or are you planing to backport most of the changes in -CURRENT to -RELEASE as well?

Yes, ...and with you asking that question, I think I have an idea what might be going on. doscmd_C_drive is a dd of the disk, and its a sliced disk. So it contains not just the contents of the DOS slice (/dev/wd?s?) but also the first head of the first track (/dev/wd? -- i.e. MBR + 62 sectors of blank space, then slice boot record, FAT, directory, data). I bet this is throwing mount_msdos off. If this sounds right, is there a way to, say, mount everything in the file except the first 63 "sectors" (63 * 512 bytes) of the file as the DOS filesystem? I checked the vnconfig man page, but didn't see an offset parameter. Is there a way to create a file which is just a "window" into a portion of another file? I could omit the 1st 63*512 bytes, and then vnconfig vn0 with that.

Sure it does: dd if=/dev/rwd0c of=/tmp/foo count=16 # copy a bit of my FreeBSD slice disklabel -r /tmp/foo # must be absolute pathname Setup for fdisk is a bit fussier: dd if=/dev/rwd0 of=/dev/foo count=1 # copy a bit of a disk fdisk /dev/foo # pathname must begin with "/dev" For the current problem, just configure the vn device to support slices and labels. Copying of labels in slices doesn't work very well, so handling images of FreeBSD slices may require zeroing the old label in the image and relabeling it in the vn device.

I don't think any patches should be applied to the 2.2.x branch. I don't mind storing those patches on my site so anyone who is still using 2.2.8 can easily apply them (if applicable :-) Currently, Linux emulation is identical for -stable and -current (as far as I can see it). I can't remember any major changes in -current. If a change is generally "good" then it shall probably also be applied to -stable as well (if at all possible, of course). The best thing you can do is to track -stable. That way you'll get the best of emulation and stability. As for the linux-base and linux-devel ports. I'd like to follow the RH releases with a couple of weeks/months between the RH release and the ports update. -- Marcel Moolenaar mailto:marcel@scc.nl SCC Internetworking & Databases http://www.scc.nl/ Amsterdam, The Netherlands tel: +31 20 4200655 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-emulation Thu Jun 17 2:30:28 1999 Delivered-To: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org Received: from iservern.teligent.se (www.teligent.se [194.17.198.46]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id D56521512A for ; Thu, 17 Jun 1999 02:30:26 -0700 (PDT) (envelope-from jakob@teligent.se) Received: from fwse.teligent.se (gateway.teligent.se [192.168.3.254] (may be forged)) by iservern.teligent.se (8.8.7/8.8.7) with SMTP id LAA17853; Thu, 17 Jun 1999 11:21:04 +0200 (CEST) (envelope-from jakob@teligent.se) Date: Thu, 17 Jun 1999 11:29:55 +0200 (CEST) From: Jakob Alvermark Reply-To: alvermark@teligent.se To: Jos Backus Cc: freebsd-emulation@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Staroffice 5.1 installation In-Reply-To: <19990616233317.A83290@teligent.se> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-emulation@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Thank you!

This is exactly what I meant! ;-) Sorry for not being clear enough. > The best thing you can do is to track -stable. That way you'll get the > best of emulation and stability. Great. What I was worrying about is having to choose between -STABLE/-RELASE for stability and -CURRENT for the best Linux emulation both of which are required by my users. As far as I remember, before 3.0 this was a serious problem. > As for the linux-base and linux-devel ports.

Use `vnconfig -c ...' to configure |vn devices. Thanks! Works like a charm now. I don't understand why -c isn't needed for cd9660's, but I'll remember that it is for msdos slices.
