This change affects all systems, - however user intervention is only required for systems undergoing an - upgrade installation. - -Previously, the root filesystem was always mounted from the -compatibility slice, while other partitions on the same disk were -mounted from their true slice. This might, for example, have resulted -in an /etc/fstab file like: - -# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# -/dev/wd0s2b none swap sw 0 0 -/dev/wd0a / ufs rw 1 1 -/dev/wd0s2f /local0 ufs rw 1 1 -/dev/wd0s2e /usr ufs rw 1 1 - -For FreeBSD 2.2.6 and later, this format changes so that the device for -'/' is consistent with others, ie. - -# Device Mountpoint FStype Options Dump Pass# -/dev/wd0s2b none swap sw 0 0 -/dev/wd0s2a / ufs rw 1 1 -/dev/wd0s2f /local0 ufs rw 1 1 -/dev/wd0s2e /usr ufs rw 1 1 - -If /etc/fstab is not updated manually in this case, the system will -issue a warning message whenever / is mounted (normally at startup) -indicating the change that must be made. In addition, trouble may be -experienced if the root filesystem is not correctly unmounted, whereby -the root filesystem will not be marked clean at the next reboot. - -This change should be made as soon as the upgraded system has been -successfully rebooted. - -<strong> -o The ppp program fails to work, citing a missing shared library - called "libdes.so.3.0".</strong> - -Fix: There are three possible fixes: - -1. The easiest fix is to simply install the des distribution with - /stand/sysinstall, remembering to pick a site that will allow you - to export it if you're outside the United States and Canada - (<a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/">ftp.FreeBSD.org</a> and <a href="ftp://ftp.internat.FreeBSD.org">ftp.internat.FreeBSD.org</a> both fall into this - category). - -2. Purely as a work-around, and what you may need to do if ppp - also constitutes your only way of getting to the net, is to simply - do the following (as root): - - cp /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.2.0 /usr/lib/libdes.so.3.0 - ldconfig -m /usr/lib - -3. Another fix, and one which doesn't involve having to fetch the DES - bits, is to install the ppp sources in /usr/src/usr.sbin/ppp and rebuild - them. The sources are "smart" enough to know that the DES library isn't - on the system and won't create a binary which depends on it. - -NOTE: If you choose the 2nd or 3rd fixes, you also will not be able to -use MSCHAP (Microsoft Win*) style authentication. - -<strong> -o The xterm program in XFree86 3.3.2 doesn't remove utmp entries on - exit (e.g. xterm sessions show up in "who" or "w" even after they've - exited).</strong> - -Fix: Fetch the updated xterm binary at: - - <a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/updates/2.2.6-RELEASE/xterm">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/updates/2.2.6-RELEASE/xterm</a> - -Or get the *latest* ports collection on your machine (see -http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports) and use the port in x11/XFree86 to -build an xterm with this patch already applied (as of 98/04/06). -The patch itself can also be obtained from the port itself: - - <a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/x11/XFree86/patches/patch-ag">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/x11/XFree86/patches/patch-ag</a> - -<strong> -o The older Matsushita (Panasonic), Sony CDU-31 and Mitsumi (non-IDE) - CDROM drives no longer permit CDROM installs.</strong> - -Fix: Fetch an updated boot floppy from the updates/ directory, e.g.: - - <a href="ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/updates/2.2.6-RELEASE/boot.flp">ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/updates/2.2.6-RELEASE/boot.flp</a> - -And use it to install 2.2.6 instead. This problem is fixed in 2.2-stable -and will not be a problem with the next FreeBSD release. - -</pre> - -<p></p><a href="../index.html">Release Home</a> -</body> -</html> |
