The trouble starts in that the cpu does not integrate a PCI-ISA bridge. I know pccardd will support the driver, because I have a Fujitsu laptop with a Ricoh chip from the same series of driver, and it works, in fact it even works as far bask as ver 3.4. Is there any way to force pccardd to use just a PCI interface, instead of the ISA bridge stuff? Or is there a replacement that handles straight PCI devices? Appreciate any help any of you can give.

If you go two copies, sorry for the inconvenience ;-) Hi, I created a custom picobsd bootflop, which allows one to boot a system, enter an IP address on the console and then telnet to it. The goal of this floppy is to remotely install a system, where the local involvement consists only in booting the system with the bootflop, and configuring the ethernet interface. This works great, except for one weird problem. I can't disklabel the disks (the disks are either unused or have a non FreeBSD disklabel on it). I use the disklabel procedure as described in disklabel(8). The boot flop is created on FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE. The transcript of the session is as follows: # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da0 bs=512 count=32 32+0 records in 32+0 records out 16384 bytes transferred in 0.354870 secs (46169 bytes/sec) # fdisk -BI da0 ******* Working on device /dev/da0 ******* fdisk: invalid fdisk partition table found # dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da0s1 bs=512 count=32 32+0 records in 32+0 records out 16384 bytes transferred in 0.354167 secs (46261 bytes/sec) # disklabel -w -B da0s1 auto disklabel: ioctl DIOCGDINFO: Invalid argument disklabel: auto: unknown disk type ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This is where it fails. Now comes the weird part. If I boot the system using the 4.2 RELEASE bootflop and use sysinstall to label and partition the system it works fine. So it is not the case that the bios/harddisk driver do not support the 'auto' disk type. As far as I can see, there are two possibilities: 1) sysinstall uses a different method for labeling/partitioning the disk 2) something is different or missing on my picobsd floppy, but I have no clue what it is (device, program, out of memory, kernel config) Does anyone has a clue what is going on? Does the ioctl provide a clue to a SCSI expert?

What I am wondering is if the current "Networking Version" of PicoBSD has the ability to support SMP? The project I'm currently working on is the resurrection of Pentium-or-better class machines, which have been abandoned by their owners in favor of faster hardware. I try to get as many dual-processor machines as possible. The whole reason for this is to provide CPU cycles to the SETI@Home project. What I am considering is placing two floppy drives into one of these systems, booting off of the PicoBSD floppy, and storing all SETI@Home information on the second floppy. Two CPU's worth of SETI@Home data files can be stored in less than 1.44 megs, including a single copy of the client binary. If I could make this project work with Floppy Drives, I could save the hassle of building up a new hard disk for each of these machines. Additionally, if one machine dies, I could take it's SETI@Home floppy to another machine, and have that one finish the dead machine's work units. I'm certain that PicoBSD should be able to handle this for a single-cpu machine, but I couldn't find any information that states if SMP was compiled into the kernel. If this isn't supported, but sounds feasible, I'm willing to test the images, or assist in building such an image. I have 8 years of professional UNIX experience under my belt, and I'm quite familiar with FreeBSD (from a user/admin point of view). I apologize if this topic has previously been discussed, or if my answer could be found in online documentation. I didn't find the answer on the PicoBSD site. cheers, j To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-small" in the body of the message From owner-freebsd-small Fri Jan 26 11:18:48 2001 Delivered-To: freebsd-small@freebsd.org Received: from harmony.village.org (rover.village.org [204.144.255.66]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 6532937B400 for ; Fri, 26 Jan 2001 11:18:30 -0800 (PST) Received: from harmony.village.org (localhost.village.org [127.0.0.1]) by harmony.village.org (8.11.1/8.11.1) with ESMTP id f0QJIB983620; Fri, 26 Jan 2001 12:18:12 -0700 (MST) (envelope-from imp@harmony.village.org) Message-Id: <200101261918.f0QJIB983620@harmony.village.org> To: Justin Scott Subject: Re: greetings Cc: freebsd-small@FreeBSD.ORG In-reply-to: Your message of "Fri, 26 Jan 2001 13:06:31 CST." <20010126130631.D24432@impakt.net> References: <20010126130631.D24432@impakt.net> Date: Fri, 26 Jan 2001 12:18:11 -0700 From: Warner Losh Sender: owner-freebsd-small@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG In message <20010126130631.D24432@impakt.net> Justin Scott writes: : What I am wondering is if the current "Networking Version" of PicoBSD has the : ability to support SMP?

Are these machines new enough to support PXE in many of the newer NIC cards? If so, you may be better off just doing a PXE boot instead of a PicoBSD boot. Most PCI nic cards on ebay are $10-$15 and many of them support PXE. But I can't recall if the BIOS needs to support it too or not. : What I am considering is placing two floppy drives into one of these systems, : booting off of the PicoBSD floppy, and storing all SETI@Home information on : the second floppy.
