https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D256712 --- Comment #22 from Graham Perrin <grahamperrin@gmail.com> --- Earlier this month, I had a quite different test case with these criteria:= =20 a) soft updates disabled b) sync _not_ set in /etc/fstab Following interruption whilst installing a package, or packages, the base system was broken in that things such as /bin/sh and /sbin/fsck were unusab= le in single user mode (and so, no automated check). Whilst subsequent repairs yielded a file system that was marked clean, the base system remained essentially unusable.=20 Please: should I open a separate bug for this? Or is breakage a (rare but explicable) possibility with the combination of those two criteria? ---- man 8 mount > =E2=80=A6 > noasync > Metadata I/O should be done synchronously, while data I/O > should be done asynchronously.
