Jordan .... your FreeBSD installation floppy is getting better and better. Good work. Although I had some problem, see below. To the rest of the team ... thanks for this nice release ! Come on let's drink some virtual beers ;) After doing some hurrays (Jordan, now you got some more :) now what I found out: - The second choice of the last installation menue of the floppy setup spawns a subshell. After exit the systems will be halted. So you have no chance to finish system / network setup properly. This was 2 days ago .... That's all I remember, sorry. - The file /usr/share/info/dir has a typo in it s/(send-pr):/(send-pr)./ - The info files for amd are missing. Can be created easily from source tree using makeinfo. - The info file for comerr seems to have an error in it. It can't be displayed although it's there. Error is: cannot find node "Top". - When going into /usr/sbin and doing a man * and browsing through the pages by hitting 'q' you sometimes get an error like this. It's not exactly reproduceable, it occurrs randomly. I use the default kernel from floppy: Formatting page, please wait... Pipe call failed Error executing formatting or displaying command System command exited with Status 512 Failed. The second time I got this "flavour" of error message: Formatting page, please wait... ld.so: groff: libm.so.2.0: Too many open files. Done. Error executing formatting or displaying command System command exited with Status 512 Failed. - Can't compile kernel. freebsd# make depend cc -c -pipe -O -W -Wreturn-type -Wcomment -Wredundant-decls -nostdinc -I. -I../.. -I../../sys -I../../../include -DKNOBEL -DI486_CPU -DXSERVER -DTUNE_1542 -DDUMMY_NOPS -DGATEWAY -DDODUMP -DUCONSOLE -DSCSI_DELAY=15 -DCOMPAT_43 -DPROCFS -DCD9660 -DMSDOSFS -DNFS -DFFS -DINET -DKERNEL -Di386 -DLOAD_ADDRESS=0xF0100000 -DTIMEZONE=0 -DDST=0 -DMAXUSERS=10 -UKERNEL ../../i386/i386/genassym.c In file included from ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:40: ../../../include/stdio.h:43: sys/types.h: No such file or directory ../../../include/stdio.h:46: sys/cdefs.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:41: sys/param.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:42: sys/buf.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:43: sys/proc.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:50: sys/mount.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:52: sys/mbuf.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:53: sys/msgbuf.h: No such file or directory In file included from ./machine/cpu.h:46, from ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:54: ./machine/frame.h:43: sys/signal.h: No such file or directory ../../i386/i386/genassym.c:59: sys/syscall.h: No such file or dire etc...
