    Odd disk error at boot

    I'll try to film the boot sequence next time my USB-OS crashes to give you more information. There's not much on the fs besides something to learn and /etc...so... ... It also appears that the picture of the error message wasn't attached to my original post, it said there was a 1 MB size limit...

    Odd disk error at boot

    The file system is complaining about the disk it's booting from.

    Adding ZFS mirror of root-on-ZFS after FreeBSD install

    If you read zpool, you should be able to understand how ZFS handles mirrors.

    Odd disk error at boot

    My guess is that the filesystem is full, but I want to know if there is any way to recover it. Filesystem: ZFS. Boot: Bootstraps, apparently loads modules from full filesystem, and then this. Problem: Can't load pool, can't access datasets. Pool does not exist. OS will not complete boot...

    Hard shutdown when compiling C++ modules

    Not going to happen. Now knowing that: - ACPI has nothing to do with this; - CPU is throttled by the coretemp kernel module at 5ºC below the firmware upper limit; and - This only happens on C++ builds but not on other CPU-intensive tasks like building the OS. Can anyone offer a...

    Hard shutdown when compiling C++ modules

    tjmax I lowered to 85ºC with no result. The CPU should've been throttled by coretemp to remain 5ºC below the maximum allowed by the temperature sensors, no? See /usr/src/sys/dev/coretemp/coretemp.c I can buildworld with GCC just fine. ACPI has nothing to do with it because the firmware...

    Hard shutdown when compiling C++ modules

    Only on C++ builds? I can compile some pretty hefty stuff written in C but large C++ builds (like Webkit, common to Chromium and OpenOffice) hardshut the machine. It does overheat but I don't understand why it wouldn't also shutdown while compiling X or libav, for instance.

    Hard shutdown when compiling C++ modules

    Hello, I've been experiencing problems when building certain ports, notoriously Chromium and OpenOffice which are both in C++. My laptop emergency shutsdown. It's an i3-380M, 90ºC max temp. I tried lowering the max temp in coretemp alas to no result. This is leading me to think there...

    Thermal Management Issues with Laptop (Toshiba Satellite C650d)

    A shot in the dark but could you set your minimums in powerd? You can use dev.cpu.freq_levels to gather the stepping for your CPU. Running powerd in verbose mode will also tell you if your CPU is simply not throttling down enough or if there's something else going on. I'd also get rid of the...

    syscons and long lines

    In vi, erasing long lines will cause the text to become garbled, somewhat. I have to redraw the video buffer by scrolling back and forth and sometimes the input won't be in the same place, so it looks like I'm overwriting good text and I have to quit/relaunch. In typing long commands, pressing...

    Anyone else having problems with syscons and long lines on 9.0-R-p0 with VESA?

    Boot from an encrypted FS with keys on FDD

    It's possible. An ideal implementation is, in fact, to boot (MBR, bootcode and kernel) from a RO media, such as an optical disc or USB key with a write protection switch, like the Kanguru Flashblu II. The keys can then be read from any kernel-accessible device. I believe there's a HOWTO on...

    FreeBSD 9: awesome and made of win

    If I may interject... What you are referring to as Linux is in fact GNU/Linux. That is all.

    ipfw passive ftp

    It was actually an idea of mine to code a ftp-on-demand daemon, that would apply firewall rules dynamically to allow client connections. Generally, FTP is somewhat rarely used these days, possibly because of this bilateral connection scheme. Most FTP connections are persistent to a static...

    Proper procedure on intrusion-detection?

    To respond to the OPs question... it's not really a cause for concern but it is a reality that some people craft software to scan well known ports and attempt connections. Every server process has ways to prevent unauthorized access, from IP-level access control, to shared secrets and...

    ZFS Question - How do I remove excess file copies

    I was relying on mv's copy/delete mechanism... not sure what happened. I did the test myself and while a move operation didn't perform as I expected a copy/delete/move fixed the issue on my test dataset. Edit: A quick look at the source reveals that mv, as the epitome of efficiency, will...

    ZFS Question - How do I remove excess file copies

    Datasets are filesystems. The operation would be lengthy but you've grasped the concept that you need to rewrite the data in order to eliminate the duplicated data. According to your paths and granted the space, you could: # zfs set copies=1 zdrive/home # cd /zdrive/home # mkdir temp # mv *...

    mysql.sock missing, cannot stop mysqld

    Verify the path to the sock file in my.cnf. Also verify if there is networking support. If there is, try to shutdown by connecting via TCP/IP, send MySQL a SIGHUP, try again, send MySQL a SIGQUIT, try again. If that fails try a SIGKILL. SIGQUIT shuts down MySQL gracefully on my system, I don't...

    ZFS readonly=on temporary on boot

    I have this problem and I'm stumped. My ZFS filesystem onto which the OS resides boots as readonly=on source=temporary on boot. Its properties are identical to the defaults, except aclinherit, aclpassthrough and mountpoint. Anyone has any idea what causes that? loader.conf, rc.conf and fstab...
