I've been following this thread and decided to enable softupdates on
my system.
Read /sys/ufs/ffs/README.softupdates
Did ``boot -s'' and ran tunefs but got an error:
Enter full pathname of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh:
# pwd
/
# tunefs -n enable /usr
tunefs: soft updates set
tunefs: /dev/rda1s1e: reload: Invalid argument
What caused this? There's no reference in the manpage.
The only odd thing about my system is that I'm running a 3.4-RC kernel
with a 3.3-STABLE, as of the end of September, userland (yeah, yeah, I
know I shouldn't do this, but I needed something adding to the kernel
but haven't had time to make the world, and it's running fine).
Softupdates appears to be working fine:
marder-1:/usr/mark{52}% mount
/dev/da0s3a on / (local, writes: sync 102 async 174)
/dev/da1s1e on /usr (local, soft-updates, writes: sync 73 async 492)
procfs on /proc (local)
/dev/da0s1 on /drvc (local)
/dev/da0s5 on /ntfs (local, read-only)
marder-1:/usr/mark{53}%
My /etc/fstab:
# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass#
/dev/da0s3b none swap sw 0 0
/dev/da0s3a / ufs rw 1 1
/dev/da1s1e /usr ufs rw 2 2
# /dev/da0s3e /var ufs rw 2 2
/dev/cd0c /cdrom cd9660 ro,noauto 0 0

/dev/fd0 /pcfs msdos rw,noauto 0 0
