Are the file systems on BSDI and FreeBSD the same? Can I for instance install FreeBSD on a root disk and mount my current BSD/OS formatted news drives? How about the other way around? I have news machines from two different companies which have combined under my control now and I'd like to standardize on one OS. Also, the FreeBSD box I have inherited has had problems for quite some time, rebooting itself once a week or so. It's running 2.1.0-RELEASE FreeBSD and both the motherboard and the Adaptec 2940 controller have been replaced at various times to try to track down the problem. Dmesg reports the following after the system reboots. These reports are spread over months of time, but very similar. I suspect flaky hardware, but can someone suggest what this error might be caused by? They tried upgrading the kernel to one of the stable releases in the early summer but within 2 hours of running the machine panic'ed and trashed all the file systems on sd0 so they've been rather hesitant to try that again.
