However, tracepath is part of (Linux) iputils which seem to be just Linux centric. Is someone aware of and similar tool for *BSD systems?

This way it will automatically start on the serial port, you don't need to type 'consdev comx'. </pre> Manuel Bouyer 2012-05-25T07:54:57 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33117 <pre> My main problem is that I would like to realize the install from the serial port, but since "consdev comx" doesn't seem to work I don't know what other options I have. I've also realized that when booting from VGA with the 6.0BETA install CD the install process gets stuck after something like: boot device: root device: And there's no output behind this point (although I see the CD gets recognized by the kernel). That's why I wanted to use the serial console, so I can paste the output of the boot process and hopefully find the error. Thanks, Roger. </pre> Roger Pau Monné 2012-05-25T07:47:21 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33116 <pre>On Sun, 20 May 2012 17:28:57 -0400 "James K.

I can get to the NetBSD bootloader, and using boot tftp:path/to/netbsd-INSTALL.gz finds and loads the kernel, but it's tedious to write boot tfp:path/to/kernel, is there some way to pass a config file as an argument to netbsdpxe.0? That would be great. Another problem that I've found (both from the BETA6 CD or the PXE bootloader) is that "consdev comx" doesn't seem to work for me. I've tried all the comX options, but the kernel always throws it's output to the VGA port, any thoughts on this one? This is a Dell R310 by the way. This is the output I get, but I think it won't be of much help: boot: netbsd Press return to boot now, any other key for boot menu booting netbsd - starting in 0 seconds. type "?" or "help" for help.

I've tried with 6.0BETA amd64 INSTALL kernels and it seems to be compiled without MULTIBOOT options, which makes them useless with pxelinux. I've tried adding "options MULTIBOOT" to the sys/arch/amd64/conf/INSTALL conf file, but the resulting kernel is still not booting with pxelinux. I'm using the following pxelinux configuration: label netbsd6-install kernel mboot.c32 append rogerpau/netbsd-INSTALL Which gives "Fatal: not a multiboot kernel." error when using amd64 versions, but with i386 I've got a little bit more success, I'm able to boot the install kernel, that seems to come with multiboot activated by default on config file, but since I'm on a serial console I'm not able to see any output, and the machine reboots shortly after booting the kernel, to get serial console output I've tried passing "consdev com1", but I'm not really sure this is the correct syntax to use with pxelinux. label netbsd6-install kernel mboot.c32 append rogerpau/netbsd-INSTALL consdev com1 Does someone know how to set the console output for NetBSD kernels from pxelinux, and why amd64 kernels seem to be not multiboot valid (at least for mboot.c32/pxelinux). Thanks, Roger. </pre> Roger Pau Monné 2012-05-24T14:56:07 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33111 <pre> Sorry that's not true. It would only be 64 if the ffs partition of your second gpt would also start at 64. The first gpt/mbr layout doesn't matter in this case. </pre> Petar Bogdanovic 2012-05-23T14:15:09 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33110 <pre> Yes, boot knows how to deal with disklabel &lt; at &gt; raidframe so as long as you stick with it you won't need that hack even if your raidframe is &lt; at &gt; gpt &lt; at &gt; disk. (sorry for the silly &lt; at &gt;-notation) </pre> Petar Bogdanovic 2012-05-23T14:09:32 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33109 <pre> If you intend to boot from this (ffs &lt; at &gt; gpt &lt; at &gt; raidframe &lt; at &gt; gpt &lt; at &gt; disk), you'll probably need this ugly duckling: - bios_sector += RF_PROTECTED_SECTORS; + bios_sector += RF_PROTECTED_SECTORS+34; Interesting point. What I have done is gpt on disk, with raidframe partition at 64 in raid, regular disklabel raid0a starting at 0 I think for 2T (vs 2.5T or bigger) I don't really need gpt, but I like having a clear label on the disk show up in dmesg when it attaches. So I think boot will only need to skip the 64 RF sectors after first finding the raid partition from parsing the gpt label. Does that sound right? </pre> Greg Troxel 2012-05-23T14:01:12 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33108 <pre> If you intend to boot from this (ffs &lt; at &gt; gpt &lt; at &gt; raidframe &lt; at &gt; gpt &lt; at &gt; disk), you'll probably need this ugly duckling: Index: bootxx/boot1.c =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/src/sys/arch/i386/stand/bootxx/boot1.c,v retrieving revision 1.20 diff -u -r1.20 boot1.c --- bootxx/boot1.c 6 Jan 2011 01:08:48 -0000 1.20 +++ bootxx/boot1.c 30 Mar 2012 13:58:33 -0000 &lt; at &gt;&lt; at &gt; -86,7 +86,7 &lt; at &gt;&lt; at &gt; * (Maybe this should only be done if the filesystem * magic number is absent.) */ - bios_sector += RF_PROTECTED_SECTORS; + bios_sector += RF_PROTECTED_SECTORS+34; fd = ob(); if (fd != -1) goto done; Index: lib/biosdisk.c =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/src/sys/arch/i386/stand/lib/biosdisk.c,v retrieving revision 1.40 diff -u -r1.40 biosdisk.c --- lib/biosdisk.c 16 Jan 2012 18:47:57 -0000 1.40 +++ lib/biosdisk.c 30 Mar 2012 13:58:33 -0000 &lt; at &gt;&lt; at &gt; -760,7 +760,7 &lt; at &gt;&lt; at &gt; d-&gt;boff = d-&gt;part[partition].offset; if (d-&gt;part[partition].fstype == FS_RAID) - d-&gt;boff += RF_PROTECTED_SECTORS; + d-&gt;boff += RF_PROTECTED_SECTORS+34; #ifdef _STANDALONE bi_wedge.startblk = d-&gt;part[partition].offset; while the offset in your case would be 64.

(yes, it seems to) Does the "absent" keyword in raidctl still work? (yes, but with -C) My system is up-to-date netbsd-5/i386. I just got two 2T SATA drives, intending to migrate a system from 2 * 400G RAID-1 to a RAID-1 pair with the new drives. (Not relevant, I think: I got one Seagate and one Hitachi drive, both 7200 rpm, to reduce the chance of correlated failures.) I put the Seagate drive in an Aluratek docking enclosure, and it shows up as sd4 and seems to work. I used gpt create, gpt add, gpt label, and addwedge, and can access dk0. It looks fine (yes, I started at 64 not 34 due to 4K sectors which I probably have): start size index contents 0 1 PMBR 1 1 Pri GPT header 2 32 Pri GPT table 34 30 64 3907029071 1 GPT part - NetBSD RAIDFrame component 3907029135 32 Sec GPT table 3907029167 1 Sec GPT header [There are no dk/wedge examples in the man page (on netbsd-5).] I am trying to get a deficient raid-1 set created; I created a raidframe config: START array 1 2 0 START disks /dev/dk0 absent START layout # sectPerSU SUsPerParityUnit SUsPerReconUnit RAID_level_1 128 1 1 1 START queue fifo 100 Then, trying to configure raid1 (raid0 is my 400G pair): # raidctl -v -c /etc/raid2T.conf raid1 Ignoring missing component at column 1 raid1: Component /dev/dk0 being configured at col: 0 Column: 0 Num Columns: 0 Version: 96 Serial Number: 0 Mod Counter: 0 Clean: No Status: 0 Number of columns do not match for: /dev/dk0 /dev/dk0 is not clean! raid1: Component absent being configured at col: 1 Column: 0 Num Columns: 0 Version: 0 Serial Number: 0 Mod Counter: 0 Clean: No Status: 0 Column out of alignment for: absent Number of columns do not match for: absent absent is not clean! raid1: There were fatal errors RAIDFRAME: failed rf_ConfigureDisks with 22 raidctl: ioctl (RAIDFRAME_CONFIGURE) failed: Invalid argument I reran with -C and it configured: Ignoring missing component at column 1 raid1: Component /dev/dk0 being configured at col: 0 Column: 0 Num Columns: 0 Version: 96 Serial Number: 0 Mod Counter: 0 Clean: No Status: 0 Number of columns do not match for: /dev/dk0 /dev/dk0 is not clean! raid1: Component absent being configured at col: 1 Column: 0 Num Columns: 0 Version: 0 Serial Number: 0 Mod Counter: 0 Clean: No Status: 0 Column out of alignment for: absent Number of columns do not match for: absent absent is not clean! raid1: There were fatal errors raid1: Fatal errors being ignored. raid1: RAID Level 1 raid1: Components: /dev/dk0 component1[**FAILED**] raid1: Total Sectors: 3907028992 (1907729 MB) It seems that 'absent' is not an error, and forcing should not be necessary.

The screen only display the first line message and reboot immediately. I knew the new netbsd-6 kernel using modules under i386, so I try the MONOLITHIC kernel, but it failed boot, too. Then I copy the fresh 6.0 destdir.i386/usr/mdec/boot to /boot, destdir.i36/stand/i386/6.0 to /stand/i386. Boot the system, this time the screen show more one line: Loading /stand/i386/6.0/modules/ffs/ffs.kmod and reboot again. Add -vx boot options, no verbose and debug messages appeared. I also try the same upgrading procedure on another PC box, it has netbsd/i386 5.1 installed, and boot new kernel encounter the same reboot problem. The bootloader on these systems is GRUB 0.97. Did I miss some important things with new version boot before launching the new kernel? The attachment is the dmesg output from my x60.

It contains the programs isoinfo to dump the directory from an ISO9660 image and isovfy to verify an ISO9660 image. </pre> Michael van Elst 2012-05-21T20:51:19 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33104 <pre> I took some risk and went ahead with multission write with above iso (which I could not verify due to said issue). The write was successful. I also verified the contents on CD after write. So I suspect, the iso created for a multisession write won't be mountable for viewing its contents. Can anyone confirm?

However once it sets in, it doesn't go away until next reboot.

So why don't you just replace the Disk and pax your data? You'll get several hours(/days) to invest elsewhere for free. :) If you trust their Specs (MTBF), yes. Also you may want to take a look at the new Soekris net6501 (Intel Atom) boards. If my two Alix boards weren't running that well, I'd go for one of those, especially since they have several Gig-E Ports. http://soekris.com/products/net6501.html </pre> Petar Bogdanovic 2012-05-21T12:19:16 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.os.netbsd.general/33100 <pre>Subject: sbc better than soekris? I'd suggest updating to a newer Soekris 5501 model, but unfortunately they're still rather expensive. There are versions of PC Engines ALIX boards which are substantially similar to the newer Soekris 5501 and they are sometimes available on E-bay for more reasonable prices. I don't think they are quite as nice though, but functionally they do much the same job (you only get two, or three, Ethernet ports on the most common models though). You may find something decent in the SBC SoC-based ARM or MIPS world that works well with NetBSD, but finding such devices with multiple proper separate Ethernet ports is difficult. Many now have wonky special switch chips, and work is just now being done to get FreeBSD drivers for them (and hopefully they can be pulled into NetBSD soon). I ended up buying a fully kitted out Soekris 5501-70 for myself. As for storage for such devices, well that's yet another good question. I picked up a 16GB Compact FASH card for my Soekris machine at a somewhat lower price from Best Buy than Soekris wanted for something similar, but Compact FLASH seems to be getting a lot harder to find in retail outlets, even in many camera stores I've been in recently. I wish it would boot off a USB thumb drive, but it won't, yet. I also bought what seemed to be the best price/GB SATA drive for it too, and that ended up being a 320GB drive. I'm planning on putting my local FTP cache there, but that will hardly make a dent in it, so I'll probably also put some tertiary copies of backups on it too. </pre> Greg A.
