I've been running IPFIlter on FreeBSD4.0-Current on my Pentium 233MMX box for a
while now. And up until the middle of last week I haven't had any problems
with it. I cvsup to the latest src tree everynight and make buildworld (done
at 4am with a crontab entry), and every morning I would installworld, build new
kernel, MAKEDEV all, and fastboot. Except last week on boot with the new
kernel, I got:
CPU: Pentium/P55C (239.83-MHz 586-class CPU)
Origin = "GenuineIntel" Id = 0x543 Stepping=3
Features=0x8001bf<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,MCE,CX8,MMX>
real memory = 134217728 (131072K bytes)
avail memory = 127258624 (124276K bytes)
Preloaded elf kernel "kernel" at 0xc030e000.
Intel Pentium detected, installing workaround for F00F bug
ipl: ERROR: driver has bogus cdevsw->d_maj = -1
It then continues booting till it got time to load the ipfilter rules. At
which point I got:
open device: Device not configured
ioctl(SIOCADDFR): Bad file descriptor
for every rule it tried to load. The system boots fine after that, and I get
the same errors when I (as superuser) tried loading it by hand.
Booting the system with kernel.old works fine, ipl loads, and so do the rules.
I haven't heard anyone say anything regarding this in the mailing list
recently, and a search through the online database comes up with nothing. Any
suggestions?
Thanks,
Dave

PS. While I'm here, anyone successfully loaded DOS 6.22 on bochs pass
himem.sys? bochs would try to load himem.sys, but after a few minutes it'd
close and put me back to the BSD prompt.
