(newbie here) I've recently installed FreeBSD 9.1-RC2 from ISO on my iMac G4. I've later tried to fetch the system and kernel sources via sysinstall, with no success, I'm getting the following message: "...Warning: Can't find the `9.1-RC2' distribution on this FTP server. You may need to visit a different server for the release you are trying to fetch or go to the Options menu and to set the release name to explicitly match what's available on ftp.freebsd.org (or set to "any")..." regardless of the mirror I use or the version I use (e.g 9.1-RELEASE) Changing to "any" just gives the following error: "Unable to transfer the sbase distribution" What am I doing wrong, and how otherwise can I get the sources I need?

You will probably not be able to get the sources for 9.1-RC2 any more. I hope you already have the Ports installed, then you can do the following steps to get the sources for 9.1 (to rebuild and upgrade to 9.1-RELEASE). cd /usr/ports/devel/subversion make install make clean cd svn checkout svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/9.1 /usr/src And then follow the documentation in the handbook, e.g. "Chapter 25 Updating and Upgrading FreeBSD" [1].

Thanks for the swift (and detailed) reply. Will do so. Just for general info, I've installed the system about 3 days ago from an ISO file I've downloaded from FreeBSD ftp. Did I just accidentally downloaded an old iso, or did 9.1-RELEASE ISOs were never released? Thank you and best regards, S.

December 2012, including the powerpc64 version. > Did I just accidentally downloaded an old iso, or did 9.1-RELEASE ISOs were > never released? Ah, I guess I just see what could have happen to you. For FreeBSD 9.1 / powerpc there are only 9.1-RC2 ISOs [1] available. But for FreeBSD 9.1 / powerpc64 only the 9.1-RELEASE ISOs [2]. I guess the 32bit version of powerpc never got released, but I do not know the reason or any details. [1] ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-powerpc/9.1/ [2] ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-powerpc64/9.1/ If your system does support the powerpc64 version, then it is probably easier to just do a fresh installed with the powerpc64 9.1-RELEASE ISO. PS: No need to use "reply all", reply only to the list is perfect, as I do filter e-mails based on the "List-Id" header line. bye Fabian From owner-freebsd-ppc@FreeBSD.ORG Sun Apr 28 14:16:18 2013 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-ppc@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:1900:2254:206a::19:1]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id C2C55B2A for ; Sun, 28 Apr 2013 14:16:18 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from squigly@gmail.com) Received: from mail-qa0-x235.google.com (mail-qa0-x235.google.com [IPv6:2607:f8b0:400d:c00::235]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 8998B1718 for ; Sun, 28 Apr 2013 14:16:18 +0000 (UTC) Received: by mail-qa0-f53.google.com with SMTP id p6so716995qad.5 for ; Sun, 28 Apr 2013 07:16:18 -0700 (PDT) DKIM-Signature: v=1; a=rsa-sha256; c=relaxed/relaxed; d=gmail.com; s=20120113; h=x-received:mime-version:in-reply-to:references:from:date:message-id :subject:to:content-type; bh=GKAYkKjaM1HiyWyMKWX61KV8RtnvlP+ch7do1KwNfT8=; b=0nzyovVSK73P8Rp1FNyhxts8bSqYTE2jgg3W/ehKzJl+gIJBdv0hu8eQDcfsj5uVIT zj3Bhlhar3pYBHLDlbrZL5oNBhwjfEVzh9VuYJ/tWMylEe7awGvr23Mmqcz0g9rsFBBA 9e/927GdnNuW8k6WW9CZIoVz04PHqBpJaBM4Q937UD99IXoanCQo9lASEoZtYZ3NmF1d ardGU54TuPBlCh9la3W1TzoT8uzHqm9ZiYrmNDmd8bh0vBr9rxbPyOZXlCf86/iddgKF ADe+kxUn6VgLRpt21PlDWP6zfGOVbKxIAWk8+H0UVoBa9kAubaBdkCzYZQ9wR0xOgUX5 V0lQ== X-Received: by 10.49.0.163 with SMTP id 3mr34394516qef.14.1367158577966; Sun, 28 Apr 2013 07:16:17 -0700 (PDT) MIME-Version: 1.0 Received: by 10.49.85.98 with HTTP; Sun, 28 Apr 2013 07:15:57 -0700 (PDT) In-Reply-To: <517D2A3D.2040009@wenks.ch> References: <517D25CF.9000100@wenks.ch> <517D2A3D.2040009@wenks.ch> From: Shlomi Marco Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2013 17:15:57 +0300 Message-ID: Subject: Re: Unable to obtain PowerPC Kernel and System sources To: freebsd-ppc@freebsd.org Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 X-Content-Filtered-By: Mailman/MimeDel 2.1.14 X-BeenThere: freebsd-ppc@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.14 Precedence: list List-Id: Porting FreeBSD to the PowerPC List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 28 Apr 2013 14:16:18 -0000 Fabian.

On the side I have setup a laptop- i386 again- for a friend for studio,audio and Dj'ing. I'll get to the point. I may be able to test things on i386 and PowerPC/PPC 32bit soon. Then there is OSS emu10k and emu20k. I'm going to be needing to doing the building on PPC and maybe SPARC64/Ultra. Has anyone tested OSS on these architectures? And is it possible to update the sound driver to have the most recent development of OSS?

I'm not even sure what the i386 machine being used for "studio, audio and DJ'ing" has to do with freebsd on ppc32. These machines are fun to play with but you're not going to be able to run new studio/audio software on one very well. You're limited on the amount of ram, the cpu isn't going to cut it for any form of encoding or transcoding.

So, I can help with something like that. Or with testing anything new in the base OS. I can also test ports for both architectures mentioned in a short time..... Along with testing pieces of the base OS. I am using FreeBSD on three seprate architectures to set up a studio for a friend. The laptop does conversion and compression. The PPC32 machine will be set for effects. I would like to see how OSS's current svn code is on this architecture. Is it working? Has anyone else tested it? The UltraSPARC machine will be used to amplify and equalize. The machines are being set up for someone who is into music and not computers. So, sound, ports, base system, llvm, clang are what I know I can test on i386 and PPC32 now.

YMMV. I still don't think you're gonna get much use out of a ppc machine for any form of effects unless you're just talking about using it as an equalizer. For that matter, you could do almost all of it on the i386 laptop. Why do you need to add in so many machines for this? For the record, you're not going to get any form of realtime audio effects from that ppc machine, unless you're running an old version of garage band from 10.5.8 on it, even then it's not going to be quick. If you're hellbent on using a ppc machine, get a ps3 for that purpose.

Also, I need to be able to switch between the FreeBSD sound drivers and OSS drivers. What do I need to do to the kernel configuration file to allow this? Some ports will build with GCC and others with clang. What is the switch/command argument in make to allow this? I am very much aware of the capabilities of the processors and what works best on them. Effects such as loops are repetitive and that works just fine for the RISC load-store mechanism on Power 32 and 64 bit architectures. I do not currently have a PS3. The set up is for a friend who is not able to afford all of those great programs. I have spare machines. I am aware of and have used a lot of sound, audio, and conversion programs.
