We are also not using svnd any more since it has been integrated to vnd Since I only have Soekris 4801 and there need to be more testing on other platforms to verify that it work as expected. Please test and report back to the list. I will put binaries on github (https://github.com/openbsd/flashboot) to night and the downloads will be available from the wiki page. Best regards Johan </pre> Johan Ryberg 2011-11-02T18:01:04 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/303 <pre>Hi. I just added a new script to build image from OpenBSD install49.iso to make a bootable USB installation pen drive. The script is called build-usbinstallimage.sh If any one could test the script I would be very happy. I have tested it with both i386 and amd64 and it's possible to boot and install from a usb stick. No more need to burn cd just for installations =) There is how ever some kind of problem with OpenBSD own installation script because it can't find the path to the files automatic since its not from a CD. The path mounts upon question and the installation proceeds without any problem. Best regards Johan Ryberg </pre> Johan Ryberg 2011-10-23T21:13:52 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/299 <pre>Hi. According to TODO: [snip] load kernels as 16Mb - will avoid isadma problems - need to modify kernel and boot loader [/snip] Does any one has the status of this? I have not spent a single thought about this during my work since all my test has worked and we are now building a kernel that are 48 Mb in size and I have not found a single downside yet and I have tested Flashboot on Soekris 4801, Virtual Box, misc laptops and custom made computers. They all boot and works as expected. Maybe never versions of the boot loader that we are using today don't have this limit and this TODO is some kind of forgotten note that just should be deleted? // Johan </pre> Johan Ryberg 2011-10-09T11:25:00 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/298 <pre>Howdi folks It's now possible to build a usb kernel and usb image. I would love to see that some one tested the image. Binary download can be found at github (https://github.com/downloads/openbsd/flashboot/PENDRIVE.image) or build by your self from scratch, it's all automatic =) Best regards Johan Ryberg </pre> Johan Ryberg 2011-10-03T21:03:03 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/294 <pre>Hi I need some help with a problem. The issue can be found here: https://github.com/openbsd/flashboot/issues/9 It's about booting Flashboot on a USB stick with a computer with a SSD. Flashboot assumes that the USB stick has device sd0 but that device is in fact the ssd drive. Does any one have any idea how to solve this?

One thing that will be different is the size of the ramdisk kernel and it will be significant bigger since and the minimal build will be approximate 38Mb uncompressed. My question to you all is how much config files do you store in kernel and how much free space do you need? It's still possible to customize it but it would be great to have the standard sizes some what accurate.

But I'm not quite where I want to be with "flashboot 4.9" The RAMDRIVE kernel I succesfully build doesn't have support for pf and stuff like that. For a firewall this in inconvenient :-) So I tried uncommenting the devices that give an error when building GENERIC-RD and this turned out to be only a few items (see below for diff). The compiling now succeeds but the linking fails: ====================== ld -Ttext 0xD0200120 -e start -N --warn-common -S -x -o bsd ${SYSTEM_HEAD} vers.o ${OBJS} acpi.o(.text+0x3c41): In function `acpi_resume': : undefined reference to `acpibtn_disable_psw' acpi.o(.text+0x3d56): In function `acpi_handle_suspend_failure': : undefined reference to `acpibtn_disable_psw' acpi.o(.text+0x3f5c): In function `acpi_prepare_sleep_state': : undefined reference to `acpibtn_enable_psw' *** Error code 1 ====================== I found that the missing referenced functions are in acpibtn.o which apperently isn't in ${OBJS} but I can't fin</pre> flashbootlist< at >itmon.nl 2011-05-05T12:11:02 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/266 <pre>Dear List, My home firewall runs on an Alix system with a flashboot OpenBSD 4.6. I haven't upgraded since and I thought now with the release of 4.9 it made sence to build a new flashboot. I installed a virtualbox with 4.9; downloaded the latest flashboot scripts (2010-12-24) and executed build-release as stated in the README. This has worked for me with 4.6 without problems. But now the building seams to fail on "libstdc++-v3" Has anyone succesfully build a 4.9 FlashBoot image? Is this still possible?

Normally I just run build-release, and then build-kernel and all is good but with 4.8 and the gcc4 changes I've hit a wall that looks very similar to this: http://old.nabble.com/Building-on-i386-with-DESTDIR-td29185870.html Just wondering if anyone else out there has attempted this yet? I'm going to take a look at it tonight and see if I can get a 4.8 version of flashboot working at all. I will update as soon as I have some info. thanks, James. _______________________________________________ flashboot mailing list flashboot&lt; at &gt;mindrot.org https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/flashboot </pre> James Records 2010-11-09T00:38:54 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/257 <pre>Hi, First of all, sorry for the lack of updates the last few versions. There are two reasons. The first is that we found a bootloader-issue that caused kernel-only updates from 4.3 to fail while booting, this is now handled (see below). The second reason is life, it keep getting in the way of more important stuff. ;) The bootloader issue is rather serious and means that you can't just upload a new kernel to your pre-4.4 boxes. instead you need to update the bootloader before you do the upgrade. Failure to follow this advice will render your device unable to boot the new kernel. You have been warned! However, we have packed everything together in a nice tgz and made some easy to follow instructions, they can be downloaded here http://www.tilde.se/flashboot/download/4.7/mdec.tgz As usual all the binary images are available at http://www.tilde.se/flashboot/ Kind Regards, Rickard. PS. Also, I have a new web-server now that should stay up, sorry for that. </pre> Rickard Dahlstrand 2010-10-13T15:16:23 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/256 <pre>CVSROOT: /var/cvs Module name: flashboot Changes by: jakob&lt; at &gt;fuyu.mindrot.org 10/10/13 20:06:17 Created directory contrib/mdec </pre> Jakob Schlyter 2010-10-13T09:06:17 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/255 <pre>FYI, I've tagged flashboot 4.6 to get a placeholder before starting to fix things for 4.7. jakob </pre> Jakob Schlyter 2010-03-17T07:47:55 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/254 <pre>CVSROOT: /var/cvs Module name: flashboot Changes by: jakob&lt; at &gt;fuyu.mindrot.org 10/03/17 18:49:56 Modified files: . : ChangeLog Log message: oops, missed changelog. last commit was: - (jakob) remove brconfig(8), now included in ifconfig(8) Diff commands: cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.198 -r1.199 flashboot/ChangeLog ViewVC: http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/ChangeLog?r1=1.198;r2=1.199&amp;view=patch Please note that there may be a delay before commits are available on the public ViewVC site. </pre> Jakob Schlyter 2010-03-17T07:49:56 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/253 <pre>CVSROOT: /var/cvs Module name: flashboot Changes by: jakob&lt; at &gt;fuyu.mindrot.org 10/03/17 18:48:35 Modified files: . : list list.recovery Log message: remove brconfig (now integrated into ifconfig) Diff commands: cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.61 -r1.62 flashboot/list cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.5 -r1.6 flashboot/list.recovery ViewVC: http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/list?r1=1.61;r2=1.62&amp;view=patch http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/list.recovery?r1=1.5;r2=1.6&amp;view=patch Please note that there may be a delay before commits are available on the public ViewVC site. </pre> Jakob Schlyter 2010-03-17T07:48:35 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/252 <pre>CVSROOT: /var/cvs Module name: flashboot Changes by: jakob&lt; at &gt;fuyu.mindrot.org 10/02/24 06:38:48 Modified files: . : ChangeLog PCENGINES Log message: - (niclas) Removed "agp* at pchb?" from PCENGINES config - (niclas) Removed "option PORTAL" from PCENGINES config Diff commands: cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.197 -r1.198 flashboot/ChangeLog cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.3 -r1.4 flashboot/PCENGINES ViewVC: http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/ChangeLog?r1=1.197;r2=1.198&amp;view=patch http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/PCENGINES?r1=1.3;r2=1.4&amp;view=patch Please note that there may be a delay before commits are available on the public ViewVC site. </pre> Jakob Schlyter 2010-02-23T19:38:48 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot/251 <pre>CVSROOT: /var/cvs Module name: flashboot Changes by: jakob&lt; at &gt;fuyu.mindrot.org 10/02/24 06:35:27 Modified files: . : ChangeLog build-livecd.sh Log message: - (niclas) update build-livecd.sh to automatically use correct OpenBSD version Diff commands: cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.196 -r1.197 flashboot/ChangeLog cvs -nQq rdiff -u -r1.3 -r1.4 flashboot/build-livecd.sh ViewVC: http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/ChangeLog?r1=1.196;r2=1.197&amp;view=patch http://anoncvs.mindrot.org/index.cgi/flashboot/build-livecd.sh?r1=1.3;r2=1.4&amp;view=patch Please note that there may be a delay before commits are available on the public ViewVC site. </pre> Jakob Schlyter 2010-02-23T19:35:27 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.os.openbsd.flashboot
