>Number: 492 >Category: kern >Synopsis: sysinstall shows "success" after "no space" failure. >Confidential: no >Severity: serious >Priority: medium >Responsible: freebsd-bugs (FreeBSD bugs mailing list) >State: open >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Mon Jun 5 19:10:01 1995 >Originator: Masahiro Sekiguchi >Organization: Fujitsu >Release: FreeBSD 2.0.5-ALPHA i386 >Environment: FreeBSD 2.0.5 ALPHA, boot floppy image dated 950604 >Description: I booted the floppy and started an installation. I made a mistake on disklabel stage, allocating too small space for both / and /usr. (I found it later.) I selected FTP install. FTP started fine, but it stopped at a middle of bin-dist fetching process, showing some messages. (Sorry, I didn't note ones.) Hitting ALT-F2 gave me the following log: uid 0 on /mnt: file system full /stand/cpio: write error: No space left on device Then, on the main screen, I was asked for some kind of confirmation, (which I forgot, too.) Pressing an ENTER to the dialog gave me a message: Installation completed successfully. I believe the last message is wrong for the case. >How-To-Repeat: Not sure. Allocating small space for / and /usr may repeat the case. >Fix: Not sure. To check the result status of cpio command? >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
