FreeBSD Installation Help :: FreeBSD 7.0 & Win2K Dual boot installtion problem !!

Subject: FreeBSD 7.0 & Win2K Dual boot installtion problem !!

Hi There!!

My PC configuration is as follows.

Harddisk : Single Disk [approx 80 GB in size] || OS: Win 2000 Sp4

Layout:

Drive C: 20 GB (Primary) Windows is installed in this drive.
Drive D: 26 GB (Logical)
Drive E: 24 GB (Logical )

Now, I would like to install Free BSD 7.0 on this machine. I have learnt that FreeBSD must be installed into a primary partition. [Ref. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/install-pre.html]

That leaves me with three options.

Option A: Fresh installtion after reformatting the hard disk according to the requirement. [Not interested Sad ]

Option B: Resizing the C drive to accommodate BSD. [But I do not want to have 10 GB each as I feel that is bit less amount of memory]

Option C: Just make one partition called /boot with 50 MB size in the C drive for GRUB [so that I can pretend that I am still following the golden rule of install Free BSD in to a primary partition ] and install the rest of the BSD [i.e. /usr, /var etc etc] in either drive D or Drive E, of course after formatting them to the BSD file format. [I am not sure about this option. I request some one to please comment and suggest me how to go about it, if at all this option is feasible]

If the chosen method is not possible, how I can install BSD with Win2k as a dual boot without reinstalling windows?

Thanks in advance!!

FreeBSD Installation Help :: installing freebsd 7 on a raidcore bc4852 ??

I originaaly post this on another forum but got no reply, so in an attempt to get a help I put it here.

This is my first try on installing on a raid system and a bsd.
I am trying to install freebsd 7 on my setup which has a raidcore bc4852 and adaptec embedded sata host raid bios v2.1-1 2209 but it got stuck during booting of disk 1?

It doesn't even get to the screen that says choose your region.
It's stuck saying
hptrr: no controller detected.
md0: Preloaded image </boot/mfsroot> 4423680 bytes at 0x0dc6518
ad0: 2866188Mb <maxtor B300R0 BAH411BY0> at ata0-master UDMA100
acd0: DVDR <MEC DVD RW ND-3520A/1.04> at ata1-master UDMA33

The strange thing is I can get in to sysinstall on freebsd 6.1 which later on got stuck complaining about my disk geometry

Anybody got an idea how to put freebsd 7 in this kind of setup?

Thank you

OpenBSD General Questions :: Openbsd 4.3 USB host

Author: willy_bsd
Subject: Openbsd 4.3 USB host

Hi All,
We have a project need to port the OpenBSD 4.3 USB host to our embedded system, I don't have any OpenBSD experience before so I get many questions want to ask.

1: USB host can be divided into different layers, such as application, class driver, stack and HCD(OHCI in our case), and one important factor of USB is URB(Usb Request Block). But I looked through the OpenBSD 4.3 USB source code, and did not find anything realted to URB, so I am confused how the OpenBSD 4.3 handles USB, still have different layers? If we need to port the whole USB host, what files need to be ported?

2: OpenBSD 4.3 USB host have big gap to Linux USB host? I need to port the Linux HCD driver to our system so I want to know the difference.

I am very new to the BSD world and every comment is highly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Willy

Hello all!

I just installed OpenBSD 4.3. It came as promised with fvwm, but I'd like to try out XFCE for size. The install went flawless, but no matter how I try, it cannot open display. I installed Gnome as well, no luck there either.

Any advice would be most welcome.

FreeBSD System Administration :: RE: DNS fails for php and exim in context of apache

well don't give up yet!

I run Freebsd, with php 5.2.6 (though I also used 5.2.3 5.2.4 and 5.2.5 when they were current) and there were no problems!

Probably a dumb unrelated suggestion, but do you have dnslookups enabled in apache ?

I don't know if that would make a difference, but I've always had them enabled inside apache...
