Because the space was not enough, I bought two 250 GB harddrivs. I exchanged one of both 80 GB with one 250 GB harddrive, and put the 250 GB into the mirror. After the sync was finished, I exchanged the secong 80 GB HD. Then I have booted from the first hd (without geom loaded) to resize the slice (I reserved the last half cylinder for the geom data) using fdisk, and increase the last filesystem to the end of the slice (with disklabel and growfs). I launched the mirror, and all was working fine for a few weeks. Then I had the idea to copy some GB of stuff to the big filesystem, and as result my FreeBSD freezes, and reboots - without writing any to the logfiles. Here are some data: ad4: 238475MB at ata2-master SATA150 ad6: 238475MB at ata3-master SATA150 # fdisk /dev/ad4 ******* Working on device /dev/ad4 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=484521 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=484521 heads=16 sectors/track=63 (1008 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 63, size 488397042 (238475 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 168/ head 14/ sector 63 # fdisk mirror/gm4 ******* Working on device /dev/mirror/gm4 ******* parameters extracted from in-core disklabel are: cylinders=30401 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Figures below won't work with BIOS for partitions not in cyl 1 parameters to be used for BIOS calculations are: cylinders=30401 heads=255 sectors/track=63 (16065 blks/cyl) Media sector size is 512 Warning: BIOS sector numbering starts with sector 1 Information from DOS bootblock is: The data for partition 1 is: sysid 165 (0xa5),(FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD) start 63, size 488397042 (238475 Meg), flag 80 (active) beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1; end: cyl 168/ head 14/ sector 63 The data for partition 2 is: The data for partition 3 is: The data for partition 4 is: This layout is the same as on ad4: # /dev/mirror/gm4s1: 8 partitions: # size offset fstype [fsize bsize bps/cpg] a: 1048576 0 4.2BSD 0 0 0 b: 8388608 1048576 swap c: 488397042 0 unused 0 0 d: 33554432 9437184 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 e: 445405426 42991616 4.2BSD 2048 16384 28552 You can see, that the slice on gm4 is a little bit greater than gm4: ad4: 488397168 sectors gm4: 488392065 sectors When I work with /var (the last filesystem, currently only 20% in use) my FreeBSD freezes and reboots. Than, I can't write any more data on /var, or remove some files ): I checked the filesystems with fsck, I had built a new /var with newfs, I had upgraded my BIOS (it knows the 250 GB harddisks now as 250 GB drives), nothing helped. I booted without the gmirror from ad4, and with a small script I wrote /var full (100% usage), and all was fine. When I try to do this with gm4, it crashes (with only ad4 in the mirror, or with ad4 and ad6 in the mirror). My system is a FreeBSD 6.0 prerelease. Any ideas, whats wrong?

The 'list' subcommand should show their numbers. Thanks. This worked without stopping it first. I jusy unmounted and did it again and mounted again. Maybe this can be added to one of the man pages using keyword "renaming" or "rename". Thanks! Jeremy C.

There could be a race in earlier versions where geli stops waiting for providers before they actually show up. You increase debug level to 1 by adding: kern.geom.eli.debug=3D1 to the /boot/loader.conf and see when message "Tasting no more." is printed. This problem is fixed in 6-STABLE and will be also in 6.1-RELEASE. --=20 Pawel Jakub Dawidek http://www.wheel.pl pjd@FreeBSD.org http://www.FreeBSD.org FreeBSD committer Am I Evil?

Unfortunately, I am still not getting it to work properly. I am, however, making slight progress, as it does ask for a passphrase at boot. It does not seem to recognize my passphrase, though. Here's what I've done: 1. Booted with 6.1-BETA4 disc 1. 2. Launched Fixit with livefilesystem on CD. 3. Created symlink /dist/lib to /lib (ln -s /dist/lib /lib) and /dist/boot/kernel to /boot/kernel (ln -s /dist/boot/kernel /boot/kernel). 4. Loaded the geom_eli module (kldload geom_eli). 5. Initiated the geli device (geli init -b -s 4096 -l 256 /dev/ad0). 6. Attached the new geli device (geli attach /dev/ad0 -- works!). 7. Created bsdlabel on new, encrypted disk (bsdlabel -w /dev/ad0). 8. a. Set editor (export EDITOR=3D/dist/usr/bin/vi). b. Partitioned new disk manually (bsdlabel -e /dev/ad0). 9. Created new filesystems (newfs /dev/ad0.elia, newfs /dev/ad0.elid, newfs /dev/ad0.elie, newfs /dev/ad0.elif). 10. Defined a mountpoint (mkdir /crypt). 11. Mounted encrypted partitions (mount /dev/ad0.elia /crypt, mount /dev/ad0.elid /crypt/var, mount /dev/ad0.elie /crypt/tmp, mount /dev/ad0.elif /crypt/usr). 12. Installed base system (cd /dist/6.1-BETA4/base && export DESTDIR=3D/crypt && ./install.sh). NOTE: This did not populate /crypt/boot/kernel/ for some reason, so I copied /dist/boot/kernel/* to /crypt/boot/kernel/). 13. tar'ed up the boot directory (cd /crypt; tar -zcvpf /crypt/boot.tgz boot) and transfered to separate system with cdrtools (ln -s /dist/usr/bin /usr/bin; scp boot.tgz user@host:~/). 14. On other system, I created a new directory which contains the boot directory I copied and also an etc directory with the fstab. 15. Edited boot/loader.conf and added geom_eli_load=3D"YES" and kern.geom.eli.debug=3D1. 16. Ran mkisofs -b boot/bootcd -t /tmp/bootcd.iso /newdirectory_containingd= irs. 17. Burned /tmp/bootcd.iso. 18. Rebooted with the new CD as boot device. It prompts me for the passphrase for ad0, but when I supply it I just get: GEOM_ELI[0]: Wrong key for ad0. Tries left: 2. I know I'm typing it correctly, and if I boot back into the install disc I can attach just fine. Can you think of anything that would be causing this? Does the boot media need /lib? I don't think it does, but perhaps I'm wrong. For reference, here is the /etc/fstab on the media: # Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pas= s# /dev/ad0.elib none swap sw 0 0 /dev/ad0.elia / ufs rw 1 1 /dev/ad0.elie /tmp ufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0.elif /usr ufs rw 2 2 /dev/ad0.elid /var ufs rw 2 2 Sincerely, Adam Wood On 4/6/06, Pawel Jakub Dawidek wrote: > On Wed, Apr 05, 2006 at 08:33:55PM -0500, Adam Wood wrote: > +> Hello, > +> > +> I've recently began researching GELI and disk-encryption altogether > +> and have run into a problem. > +> > +> I've created a bootable media with the 6.0-RELEASE kernel with all the > +> standard modules.
