Vorokov From: vel@twister.artelecom.ru Subject: Some FreeBSD bugs that not yet fixed. Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hi friends ! I'm using FreeBSD about 2 year and I think that it's great and cool ! But I see some bugs in all FreeBSD versions since 2.1.0 1. When I insert floppy disk with BAD tracks in system areas, and then do "mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt", the system sometimes hangs up. I still can switch between consoles, but all processes stops and I can't do anything. Ctrl-Alt-Del doesn't work also, the only way to reboot is pressing RESET. 2. I installed FreeBSD from DOS portition, and I want to remove this partition after installation. I run "sysinstall" utility, enter "Disk Partition Editor", remove DOS partition and create new FreeBSD partition. Then I enter "Disk Label Editor", create slices I need and press "w" to write changes. Sysinstall utility says "segmentation fault, core dumped" at this point. I hope, these bugs will be fixed in official 3.0 version. Or, may be, they take place only on my machine ? I have 486DX4 machine with AMD CPU, 8Mbytes RAM, 1 GB Seagate HDD drive, 1.44 floppy drive, and standart VGA video card. Pre-thanx. Sorry for bad english - I'm russian :)
