Today, running -current from 11/14 I got the following errors while doing an installworld after testing my bind 8.3.3-patched import stuff: kernel: swap_pager_strategy: bp 0xc2f34480 blk 0 size 0, not page bounded (plus lots more) During the installworld whatever binary was being read from the /tmp/install.foo directory would segfault, and I'd get one or more of those in my log. Here is my little script for creating the mem disk. It hasn't changed in a long time. # Usually a noop, but just in case mdconfig -d -u 10 2>/dev/null mdconfig -a -t swap -s 8M -u 10 disklabel -r -w md10 auto >/dev/null newfs -U /dev/md10c >/dev/null mount /dev/md10c /tmp /bin/chmod 1777 /tmp I'll be upgrading to a more recent -current asap, but I thought I'd throw this out there what with the release imminent and all.
