The following reply was made to PR misc/91719; it has been noted by GNATS. From: =?ISO-8859-15?Q?Bj=F6rn_K=F6nig?= <bkoenig@cs.tu-berlin.de> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, ruben.kerkhof@gmail.com Cc: Subject: Re: misc/91719: BZ2_bzDecompress returned -3 error on loading bzipped kernel Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2006 02:29:08 +0100 I had the same problem. Error -3 is BZ_MEM_ERROR and means that a memory allocation failed. I did further investigations and found out that it almost works if you pass the flag -1 to bzip2 command line utility. In this case the decompression routine needs only 250k instead of 2250k with -9 (default) according to bzip2(1); but it seems like that you still run into other memory related problems. The loader says: Can't work out which disk we are booting from. Guessed BIOS device 0xffffffff not found by probes, defaulting to disk0: panic: free: guard1 fail @ 0x36c54 from /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/loader/../../common/module.c:957 --> Press a key on the console to reboot <-- Björn
