Hello!
I'm a user of FreeBSD, and I have two big problems.
------------------------------------------------------------------
1)
Util a few days ago, everything was perfect. (I had 2.2.1-RELEASE)
I decided to update my kernel sources with CVSup,
so I've prepared a configuration file: (there are no comments..)
/*
*default host=cvsup.de.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr tag=RELENG_2_2_5_RELEASE
*default release=cvs 
*default delete use-rel-suffix
src-sys
*/
and new sources are now an my system.
Next I've compiled the kernel (in fact no change to previous configuration)
and now my CD-ROM does not work.
Here You are the part from my kernel configuration
that describes this part:
/*
controller	wdc0	at isa? port "IO_WD1" bio irq 14 flags 0x00ff8004 vector wdintr
disk		wd0	at wdc0 drive 0
options 	ATAPI
options 	ATAPI_STATIC
device		wcd0
*/
and now I cannot mount my CD-ROM, it says that :
>Input/Output error<
Is there a problem in the kernel or I have done something wrong??
Problem is worse because I cannot mount the CD-ROM with
the old release of FreeBSD !
------------------------------------------------------------------------
2)
Some time ago I've received from the security-officer 
information how to patch the kernel to avoid
the f00f problem.
So I did it, then compiled the kernel and it still
hangs up for hard!
After compiling this line, and then executing it:
/*
long main []={0xc8c70ff0};
*/
everything stops.
What option should I include in my kernel configuration file
to avoid this problem?
-------------------------------------------------
Thank You for reading this info,
and I hope that something can be done about this.
