    zfs install (zfs recv over network) help

    Sorry, I forgot to adjust mountpoints. The solution is to adjust mountpoints.

    zfs install (zfs recv over network) help

    Hello. I have a system setup with multiple boot environments. It's roughly documented here: http://lifanov.com/doc/FreeBSDbeSetup.html Here is a zfs list: (it's currently booted from be-current, all three are bootable). lifanovbsd2# zfs list | awk '{print $1}' NAME rpool rpool/ROOT...

    abysmal wireless performance

    The script I posted keeps the connection up if left running; however, you might want to put a little bit of 'sleep' before the wpa_supplicant line so that these guys don't fight with each other. You don't need to reboot. The kernel message when that happens reads something like 'bb hang...

    abysmal wireless performance

    I got a job at a small office that uses wireless as its only network media. I have an internal PCI Atheros wireless N card in my desktop, and it works fantastic on Windows 7. However, on FreeBSD it does some horrible things: Connection drops permanently after some inactivity (solved by...

    Wine on amd64

    Thank you for a prompt response. libz.so.6 was in /compat/i386/lib instead of /compat/i386/usr/local/lib, so I just added this to LD_32_LIBRARY_PATH and everything worked great.

    Wine on amd64

    I ran into the following after following the FreeBSD Wine wiki. I followed this procedure before on other systems and it always worked. lifanov@lifanovbsd1> wine mnt/setup.exe ~ Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to use TrueType...

    Can vimage and virtualbox bridge coexist?

    When I use both on the same system, it freezes. I need both. I found a mail archive that mentions the problem. Do you know if there is a workaround? If I use NAT with virtualbox (not FreeBSD NAT, virtualbox NAT), is there a way to forward traffic to the virtual machine?

    ipv6 multicast status in 8.0+

    I've set up two multicast ipv6 routers with XORP and PIM-SM; however, I don't like how it abstracts the underlying operating system. I read /etc/rc.d/mroute{,6}d and one of them refers to net/mrouted in ports, which seems to be ipv4 only, and the other refers to net/pim6dd, which does not exist...

    submitting a port (emulators/linux_dist-gentoo-stage3)

    I updated emulators/linux_dist-gentoo-stage3. Now instead of using a stage that's two years old, crashes with some configurations, and doesn't bootstrap, the port uses a 2010 stage3 snapshot. It is easier to maintain. It works much better than the previous port. I also updated descriptions of...

    linux_dist-gentoo-stage3 reproducible crash

    I installed emulators/linux_dist-gentoo-stage3 from ports. I tried this with two systems, both amd64, one on UFS2 with gmirror and one on ZFS with raidz1. I tried different mount options for the relevant partition. Every time I chroot /usr/local/gentoo-stage3/ anything I get a very nasty...

    tap and vnet

    I figured it out. I wrote up roughly what I did at http://lifanov.com/doc/vimage.html.

    tap and vnet

    I just read what I typed in... How do I forward traffic from appropriate ips on bridge0 to appropriate tapNs?

    tap and vnet

    I'm looking for a sane way to use five vnet-enabled jails on the same network as the host. I'm going to give them tapN interfaces. Does the following make sense for something that is going to be loaded with local traffic or should I use epair or should I learn how to use netgraph? rc.conf...

    gmirror mount operation not supported by device

    Wow, this was my stupid. The kernel modules had version mismatches and rebooting with the old kernel fixed everything.

    gmirror mount operation not supported by device

    I have a not-so-sophisticated install of FreeBSD on a gmirror of two hard drives. The underlying fs is UFS2 with soft updates. But I can't mount anything useful (specifically: unionfs, nullfs, linproc) on it. I can mount msdosfs. I run many FreeBSD systems, but this is the only one with...
