Files can't be written reliably Message-ID: <41c_9711251716@swimsuit.roskildebc.dk> Organization: Fidonet: UNIX-sysadm søger job To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Short version: Multiple ftp-transfers of the same file doesn't give the same sum. cp file file1, then sum file != sum file ---------- Long version: On the machine, where user-id 0 can't be translated to "root", I tried to copy a new set of binaries over from a working 2.2.5 The kernel on the strange machine is 2.2.5, but the binaries was 2.2.2 I believe. Anyway, strange errors are popping out "Invalid opcode", ld:defined in mysterious ways. So I tar'ed /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin together on the working machine, and ftp'ed the tar to the strange. When I untar'ed the files, tar stopped in the middle and tried to skip to the next header. Bad copy, I guessed, ftp again. Stopped at another place. Now mv dont work, vi also stops with a trap. -------- What the h... is going on? Could it have something to do with I'm having to patch scsiconf.c, because the drive doesn't report properly it is a SCSI-1?
