Hi,

my freshly installed 1.6.0 just crashed.
No, it freezed.
Unfortunately there are no log entries whatsoever.

Was running X, doing cvsup, bmake something, running firefox etc.

In order to leave my FreeBSD untouched i installed DragonFly on
an external drive connected via Firewire.

I keep getting messages like this:

Dec 19 03:46:14 lance kernel: WARNING: #da/0x30004 si_iosize_max=0, using DFLTPHYS.

what does it mean?


I am using the following fdisk layout:

Information from DOS bootblock is:
The data for partition 1 is:
sysid 165,(DragonFly/FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 63, size 50331582 (24575 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 0/ head 1/ sector 1;
        end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 2 is:
sysid 165,(DragonFly/FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 50331645, size 41913585 (20465 Meg), flag 80 (active)
        beg: cyl 61/ head 0/ sector 1;
        end: cyl 621/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 3 is:
sysid 165,(DragonFly/FreeBSD/NetBSD/386BSD)
    start 92245230, size 532892115 (260201 Meg), flag 0
        beg: cyl 1023/ head 255/ sector 63;
        end: cyl 1023/ head 254/ sector 63
The data for partition 4 is:
<UNUSED>

Slice1 has been built by FreeBSD and i use the
swap partition for DragonFly.

Slice2 is the actual DragonFly installation:
  a:  1048576        0    4.2BSD     1024  8192    22   # (Cyl.    0 - 65*)
  b:  2097152  1048576    4.2BSD     2048 16384    89   # (Cyl.   65*- 195*)
  c: 41913585        0    unused        0     0         # (Cyl.    0 - 2608)
  d:  6291456  3145728    4.2BSD     2048 16384    89   # (Cyl.  195*- 587*)
  e: 32476401  9437184    4.2BSD     1024  8192    22   # (Cyl.  587*- 2608*)

Slice3 is the "common" part for both worlds:
  a:  2097152        0    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28512   # (Cyl.    0 - 130*)
  c: 532892115        0    unused        0     0        # (Cyl.    0 - 33170)
  d: 265397481  2097152    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28512  # (Cyl.  130*- 16650*)
  e: 265397482 267494633    4.2BSD     2048 16384 28512         # (Cyl. 16650*- 33170*)
super block size 0
disklabel: Warning, old bootblocks detected, install new bootblocks & reinstall the disklabel
(I won't do that, FreeBSD doesn't recognize DragonFly labels)

Have i done something wrong while partitioning?
(Can't believe this caused the freeze)
Or could it be this firewire thing?

BTW: I had even more trouble last night. FreeBSD accidently destroyed the DragonFly disklabel
and then all the self compiled xorg-stuff was gone...

bye,
Armin
