Haha. I'm an idjit. Sorry. That's what happens when you take isa out of the kernel config (what was I thinking anyway? - fd and atkbdc among others need this and I knew that). On Tue, 4 Mar 2003, Geoffrey wrote: > > This is repeatable. Re-cvsupped us

This is repeatable. Re-cvsupped using the same tag yesterday morning and rebuilt on a clean /obj with the same result. 5.0 Release appears to be broken. On Sun, 2 Mar 2003, Geoffrey wrote: > > Ladies and Gentlemen > > From a fresh cvsup of RELENG_5_0 this aft

Re: 5.0 without swap

2003-01-12 Thread Geoffrey T. Falk
Further to my previous message on encrypting swap: In order for it to work, apparently, one must change the fstype within the disklabel, so that the swap partition (e.g. /dev/ad0s1b) is fstype "4.2BSD", not "swap". At least, I had to do that before it would work. Geoffre

script bug: rc.sendmail

To disable sendmail, one expects to set "sendmail_enable=NO" in /etc/rc.conf. /etc/rc.sendmail looks for sendmail_enable=[Nn][Oo][Nn][Ee] (should be [Nn][Oo] to conform with standard usage.) The consequence is that an administrator may intend to disable sendmail, but it will still be enabled. g.

Re: Data corruption in soft updates?

2002-12-18 Thread Geoffrey T. Falk
I've run into similar problems dual-booting 4.x and 5.x. Is there some utility one can use to synchronize this once and for all? IMHO, when the UFS1 superblock was changed, it should have been named something else like UFS1_1 to avoid confusion. gtf -- Geoffrey T. Falk, BSc, MA, SCJ2P, SCS
