FreeBSD/ia64 6.3-RELEASE Hardware -Notes

- -

The FreeBSD Documentation Project

- - - -
-
- - - -
-
-

This is a preliminary document. It is incomplete, and in need of additional content. -Please send additional information on IA-64 processors, motherboards, and various devices -working on FreeBSD to the FreeBSD IA64 -porting mailing list.

1 Introduction

- -

This document contains the hardware compatibility notes for FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE on the -IA-64 hardware platform (also referred to as FreeBSD/ia64 6.3-RELEASE). It lists devices -known to work on this platform, as well as some notes on boot-time kernel customization -that may be useful when attempting to configure support for new devices.

- -
-
-

Note: This document includes information specific to the IA-64 hardware -platform. Versions of the hardware compatibility notes for other architectures will -differ in some details.

-
-
- -

More information on FreeBSD/ia64 is contained on the FreeBSD/ia64 -Project page.

2 Supported Processors and -Motherboards

- -

Currently supported processors are the Itanium and the Itanium 2.

- -

Supported chipsets include:

- -
    -
  • -

    HP zx1

    -
  • - -
  • -

    Intel 460GX

    -
  • - -
  • -

    Intel E8870

    -
  • -
- -

Both Uniprocessor (UP) and Symmetric Multi-processor (SMP) configurations are -supported.

- -
-
-

2.1 Supported Devices Overview

- -

Most devices that can be found in or are compatible with ia64 machines are fully -supported. The notable exception is the VGA console. The FreeBSD support for VGA consoles -is at this time too much based on PC hardware and not all ia64 machines have chipsets -that provide sufficient PC legacy support. As such -syscons(4) can -not be enabled and the use of a serial console is required.

-
-
- -
-
-

3 Supported Devices

- -$FreeBSD: src/release/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/hardware/common/dev.sgml,v 1.282.2.17 -2007/09/13 16:25:43 brueffer Exp $ - -

This section describes the devices currently known to be supported by with FreeBSD on -the IA-64 platform. Other configurations may also work, but simply have not been tested -yet. Feedback, updates, and corrections to this list are encouraged.

- -

Where possible, the drivers applicable to each device or class of devices is listed. -If the driver in question has a manual page in the FreeBSD base distribution (most -should), it is referenced here. Information on specific models of supported devices, -controllers, etc. can be found in the manual pages.

- -
-
-

Note: The device lists in this document are being generated automatically from -FreeBSD manual pages. This means that some devices, which are supported by multiple -drivers, may appear multiple times.

These systems also contain Integrated Raid Mirroring and Integrated Raid Mirroring -Enhanced which this driver also supports. The SAS controller chips are also present on -many new AMD/Opteron based systems, like the Sun 4100. Note that this controller can -drive both SAS and SATA drives or a mix of them at the same time. The Integrated Raid -Mirroring available for these controllers is poorly supported at best. The Fibre Channel -controller chipset are supported by a broad variety of speeds and systems. The Apple -Fibre Channel HBA is in fact the FC949ES card. This driver also supports target mode for -Fibre Channel cards. This support may be enabled by setting the desired role of the core -via the LSI Logic firmware utility that establishes what roles the card can take on - no -separate compilation is required.

    1 Installing FreeBSD

    - -

    This section documents the process of installing a new distribution of FreeBSD. These -instructions pay particular emphasis to the process of obtaining the FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE -distribution and to beginning the installation procedure. The “Installing FreeBSD” chapter of the FreeBSD -Handbook provides more in-depth information about the installation program itself, -including a guided walkthrough with screenshots.

    - -

    If you are upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, please see Section 3 for instructions on upgrading.

    - -
    -
    -

    1.1 Getting -Started

    - -

    Probably the most important pre-installation step that can be taken is that of reading -the various instruction documents provided with FreeBSD. A roadmap of documents -pertaining to this release of FreeBSD can be found in README.TXT, which can usually be found in the same location as this -file; most of these documents, such as the release notes and the hardware compatibility -list, are also accessible in the Documentation menu of the installer.

    - -

    Note that on-line versions of the FreeBSD FAQ and Handbook are also available from the FreeBSD Project Web site, if you have an Internet connection.

    - -

    This collection of documents may seem daunting, but the time spent reading them will -likely be saved many times over. Being familiar with what resources are available can -also be helpful in the event of problems during installation.

    - -

    The best laid plans sometimes go awry, so if you run into trouble take a look at Section 4, which contains valuable troubleshooting information. You -should also read an updated copy of ERRATA.TXT before -installing, since this will alert you to any problems which have reported in the interim -for your particular release.

    - -
    -
    -

    Important: While FreeBSD does its best to safeguard against accidental loss of -data, it's still more than possible to wipe -out your entire disk with this installation if you make a mistake. Please do -not proceed to the final FreeBSD installation menu unless you've adequately backed up any -important data first.

    -
    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    1.2 Hardware Requirements

    - -

    If you are not familiar with configuring hardware for FreeBSD, you should be sure to -read the HARDWARE.TXT file; it contains important information -on what hardware is supported by FreeBSD.

    -
    - - - - - -
    -
    -

    1.5 Detail on various installation -types

    - -

    Once you've gotten yourself to the initial installation screen somehow, you should be -able to follow the various menu prompts and go from there. If you've never used the -FreeBSD installation before, you are also encouraged to read some of the documentation in -the Documentation submenu as well as the general “Usage” instructions on the -first menu.

    - -
    -
    -

    Note: If you get stuck at a screen, press the F1 key for -online documentation relevant to that specific section.

    -
    -
    - -

    If you've never installed FreeBSD before, or even if you have, the -“Standard” installation mode is the most recommended since it makes sure that -you'll visit all the various important checklist items along the way. If you're much more -comfortable with the FreeBSD installation process and know exactly what you want to do, use the “Express” or -“Custom” installation options. If you're upgrading an existing system, use -the “Upgrade” option.

    - -

    The FreeBSD installer supports the direct use of floppy, DOS, tape, CDROM, FTP, NFS -and UFS partitions as installation media; further tips on installing from each type of -media are listed below.

    - -
    -
    -

    1.5.1 Installing from a Network -CDROM

    - -

    If you simply wish to install from a local CDROM drive then see Section 1.4. If you don't have a CDROM drive on your -system and wish to use a FreeBSD distribution CD in the CDROM drive of another system to -which you have network connectivity, there are also several ways of going about it:

    - -
      -
    • -

      If you would be able to FTP install FreeBSD directly from the CDROM drive in some -FreeBSD machine, it's quite easy: You ensure an FTP server is running and then simply add -the following line to the password file (using the -vipw(8) -command):

      - -
      -ftp:*:99:99::0:0:FTP:/cdrom:/sbin/nologin
      -
      - -

      On the machine on which you are running the install, go to the Options menu and set -Release Name to any. You may then choose a Media type of FTP and type in ftp://machine after picking “URL” in the ftp -sites menu.

      - -
      -
      -

      Warning: This may allow anyone on the local network (or Internet) to make -“anonymous FTP” connections to this machine, which may not be desirable.

      -
      -
      -
    • - -
    • -

      If you would rather use NFS to export the CDROM directly to the machine(s) you'll be -installing from, you need to first add an entry to the /etc/exports file (on the machine with the CDROM drive). The -example below allows the machine ziggy.foo.com to mount the CDROM -directly via NFS during installation:

      - -
      -/cdrom          -ro             ziggy.foo.com
      -
      - -

      The machine with the CDROM must also be configured as an NFS server, of course, and if -you're not sure how to do that then an NFS installation is probably not the best choice -for you unless you're willing to read up on -rc.conf(5) and -configure things appropriately. Assuming that this part goes smoothly, you should be able -to enter: cdrom-host:/cdrom -as the path for an NFS installation when the target machine is installed, e.g. wiggy:/cdrom.

      -
    • -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    1.5.2 Installing from Floppies

    - -

    If you must install from floppy disks, either due to unsupported hardware or just -because you enjoy doing things the hard way, you must first prepare some floppies for the -install.

    - -

    First, make your boot floppies as described in Section -1.3.

    - -

    Second, peruse Section 2 and pay special attention to the -“Distribution Format” section since it describes which files you're going to -need to put onto floppy and which you can safely skip.

    - -

    Next you will need, at minimum, as many 1.44MB floppies as it takes to hold all files -in the bin (binary distribution) directory. If you're preparing -these floppies under DOS, then these floppies must be formatted using the MS-DOS FORMAT command. If you're using Windows, use the Windows File -Manager format command.

    - -
    -
    -

    Important: Frequently, floppy disks come “factory preformatted”. -While convenient, many problems reported by users in the past have resulted from the use -of improperly formatted media. Re-format them yourself, just to make sure.

    -
    -
    - -

    If you're creating the floppies from another FreeBSD machine, a format is still not a -bad idea though you don't need to put a DOS filesystem on each floppy. You can use the -disklabel(8) and - -newfs(8) -commands to put a UFS filesystem on a floppy, as the following sequence of commands -illustrates:

    - -
    -# fdformat -f 1440 fd0
    -# disklabel -w fd0 floppy3
    -# newfs -i 65536 /dev/fd0
    -
    - -

    After you've formatted the floppies for DOS or UFS, you'll need to copy the files onto -them. The distribution files are sized so that a floppy disk will hold a single file. -Each distribution should go into its own subdirectory on the floppy, e.g.: a:\bin\bin.inf, a:\bin\bin.aa, a:\bin\bin.ab, ...

    - -
    -
    -

    Important: The bin.inf file also needs to go on the -first floppy of the bin set since it is read by the -installation program in order to figure out how many additional pieces to look for when -fetching and concatenating the distribution. When putting distributions onto floppies, -the distname.inf file must occupy the first floppy of each distribution set.

    -
    -
    - -

    Once you come to the Media screen of the install, select “Floppy” and -you'll be prompted for the rest.

    -
    - -
    -
    -

    1.5.4 Installing from QIC/SCSI -Tape

    - -

    When installing from tape, the installation program expects the files to be simply -tar'ed onto it, so after fetching all of the files for the distributions you're -interested in, simply use -tar(1) to get -them onto the tape with a command something like this:

    - -
    -# cd /where/you/have/your/dists
    -# tar cvf /dev/sa0 dist1 .. dist2
    -
    - -

    When you go to do the installation, you should also make sure that you leave enough -room in some temporary directory (which you'll be allowed to choose) to accommodate the -full contents of the tape you've -created. Due to the non-random access nature of tapes, this method of installation -requires quite a bit of temporary storage. You should expect to require as much temporary -storage as you have stuff written on tape.

    - -
    -
    -

    Note: When going to do the installation, the tape must be in the drive before booting from the boot floppies. -The installation “probe” may otherwise fail to find it.

    -
    -
    - -

    Now create a boot floppy as described in Section 1.3 and -proceed with the installation.

    -
    - -
    -
    -

    1.5.5 Installing over a Network using FTP -or NFS

    - -

    After making the boot floppies as described in the first section, you can load the -rest of the installation over a network using one of 3 types of connections: serial port, -parallel port, or Ethernet.

    - -
    -
    -
    1.5.5.1 Serial Port
    - -

    SLIP support is rather primitive, and is limited primarily to hard-wired links, such -as a serial cable running between two computers. The link must be hard-wired because the -SLIP installation doesn't currently offer a dialing capability. If you need to dial out -with a modem or otherwise dialog with the link before connecting to it, then the PPP -utility should be used instead.

    - -

    If you're using PPP, make sure that you have your Internet Service Provider's IP -address and DNS information handy as you'll need to know it fairly early in the -installation process. You may also need to know your own IP address, though PPP supports -dynamic address negotiation and may be able to pick up this information directly from -your ISP if they support it.

    - -

    You will also need to know how to use the various “AT commands” for -dialing out with your particular brand of modem as the PPP dialer provides only a very -simple terminal emulator.

    -
    - -
    -
    -
    1.5.5.2 Parallel Port
    - -

    If a hard-wired connection to another FreeBSD or Linux machine is available, you might -also consider installing over a “laplink” style parallel port cable. The data -rate over the parallel port is much higher than what is typically possible over a serial -line (up to 50k/sec), thus resulting in a quicker installation. It's not typically -necessary to use “real” IP addresses when using a point-to-point parallel -cable in this way and you can generally just use RFC 1918 style addresses for the ends of -the link (e.g. 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.2, -etc).

    - -
    -
    -

    Important: If you use a Linux machine rather than a FreeBSD machine as your -PLIP peer, you will also have to specify link0 in the TCP/IP -setup screen's “extra options for ifconfig” field in order to be compatible -with Linux's slightly different PLIP protocol.

    -
    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -
    1.5.5.3 Ethernet
    - -

    FreeBSD supports most common Ethernet cards; a table of supported cards is provided as -part of the FreeBSD Hardware Notes (see HARDWARE.TXT in the -Documentation menu on the boot floppy or the top level directory of the CDROM). If you -are using one of the supported PCMCIA Ethernet cards, also be sure that it's plugged in -before the laptop is powered on. -FreeBSD does not, unfortunately, currently support “hot insertion” of PCMCIA -cards during installation.

    - -

    You will also need to know your IP address on the network, the netmask value for your subnet and the name of your machine. Your -system administrator can tell you which values are appropriate to your particular network -setup. If you will be referring to other hosts by name rather than IP address, you'll -also need a name server and possibly the address of a gateway (if you're using PPP, it's -your provider's IP address) to use in talking to it. If you want to install by FTP via an -HTTP proxy (see below), you will also need the proxy's address.

    - -

    If you do not know the answers to these questions then you should really probably talk -to your system administrator first -before trying this type of installation. Using a randomly chosen IP address or netmask on -a live network is almost guaranteed not to work, and will probably result in a lecture -from said system administrator.

    - -

    Once you have a network connection of some sort working, the installation can continue -over NFS or FTP.

    -
    - -
    -
    -
    1.5.5.4 NFS installation tips
    - -

    NFS installation is fairly straight-forward: Simply copy the FreeBSD distribution -files you want onto a server somewhere and then point the NFS media selection at it.

    - -

    If this server supports only “privileged port” access (this is generally -the default for Sun and Linux workstations), you may need to set this option in the -Options menu before installation can proceed.

    - -

    If you have a poor quality Ethernet card which suffers from very slow transfer rates, -you may also wish to toggle the appropriate Options flag.

    - -

    In order for NFS installation to work, the server must also support “subdir -mounts”, e.g. if your FreeBSD distribution directory lives on wiggy:/usr/archive/stuff/FreeBSD, then wiggy will have to allow the direct mounting of /usr/archive/stuff/FreeBSD, not just /usr -or /usr/archive/stuff.

    - -

    In FreeBSD's /etc/exports file this is controlled by the --alldirs option. Other NFS servers may have different -conventions. If you are getting Permission Denied messages from -the server then it's likely that you don't have this properly enabled.

    -
    - -
    -
    -
    1.5.5.5 FTP Installation tips
    - -

    FTP installation may be done from any mirror site containing a reasonably up-to-date -version of FreeBSD. A full menu of reasonable choices for almost any location in the -world is provided in the FTP site menu during installation.

    - -

    If you are installing from some other FTP site not listed in this menu, or you are -having troubles getting your name server configured properly, you can also specify your -own URL by selecting the “URL” choice in that menu. A URL can contain a -hostname or an IP address, so something like the following would work in the absence of a -name server:

    - -
    -ftp://216.66.64.162/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ia64/4.2-RELEASE
    -
    - -

    There are three FTP installation modes you can use:

    - -
      -
    • -

      FTP: This method uses the standard “Active” mode for transfers, in which -the server initiates a connection to the client. This will not work through most -firewalls but will often work best with older FTP servers that do not support passive -mode. If your connection hangs with passive mode, try this one.

      -
    • - -
    • -

      FTP Passive: This sets the FTP "Passive" mode which prevents the server from opening -connections to the client. This option is best for users to pass through firewalls that -do not allow incoming connections on random port addresses.

      -
    • - -
    • -

      FTP via an HTTP proxy: This option instructs FreeBSD to use HTTP to connect to a proxy -for all FTP operations. The proxy will translate the requests and send them to the FTP -server. This allows the user to pass through firewalls that do not allow FTP at all, but -offer an HTTP proxy. You must specify the hostname of the proxy in addition to the FTP -server.

      - -

      In the rare case that you have an FTP proxy that does not go through HTTP, you can -specify the URL as something like:

      - -
      -ftp://foo.bar.com:port/pub/FreeBSD
      -
      - -

      In the URL above, port is the port number of the -proxy FTP server.

      -
    • -
    -
    -
    -
    - - -
    - -
    -
    -

    2 Distribution Format

    - -

    A typical FreeBSD distribution directory looks something like this (exact details may -vary depending on version, architecture, and other factors):

    - -
    -ERRATA.HTM      README.TXT      compat1x        dict            kernel
    -ERRATA.TXT      RELNOTES.HTM    compat20        doc             manpages
    -HARDWARE.HTM    RELNOTES.TXT    compat21        docbook.css     packages
    -HARDWARE.TXT    base            compat22        filename.txt    ports
    -INSTALL.HTM     boot            compat3x        floppies        proflibs
    -INSTALL.TXT     catpages        compat4x        games           src
    -README.HTM      cdrom.inf       crypto          info            tools
    -
    - -

    These same files are contained in the first CDROM of a multi-disk set, but they are -laid out slightly differently on the disk. On most architectures, the installation CDROM -also contains a “live filesystem” in addition to the distribution files. The -live filesystem is useful when repairing or troubleshooting an existing FreeBSD -installation (see Section 4 for how to use this).

    - -

    The floppies directory will be of particular interest to -users who are unable to boot from the CDROM media (but are able to read the CDROM by -other means). It is easy to generate a set of 1.44MB boot floppies from the floppies directory (see Section 1.3 for -instructions on how to do this) and use these to start an installation from CDROM, FTP, -or NFS. The rest of the data needed during the installation will be obtained -automatically based on your selections. If you've never installed FreeBSD before, you -also want to read the entirety of this document (the installation instructions) file.

    - -

    If you're trying to do some other type of installation or are merely curious about how -a distribution is organized, what follows is a more thorough description of some of these -items in more detail:

    - -
      -
    1. -

      The *.TXT and *.HTM files contain -documentation (for example, this document is contained in both INSTALL.TXT and INSTALL.HTM) and should -be read before starting an installation. The *.TXT files are -plain text, while the *.HTM files are HTML files that can be -read by almost any Web browser. Some distributions may contain documentation in other -formats as well, such as PDF or PostScript.

      -
    2. - -
    3. -

      docbook.css is a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) file used by -some Web browsers for formatting the HTML documentation.

      -
    4. - -
    5. -

      The base, catpages, crypto, dict, doc, games, info, manpages, proflibs, and src directories contain the -primary distribution components of FreeBSD itself and are split into smaller files for -easy packing onto floppies (should that be necessary).

      -
    6. - -
    7. -

      The compat1x, compat20, compat21, compat22, compat3x, and compat4x directories -contain distributions for compatibility with older releases and are distributed as single -gzip'd tar files - they can be installed during release time or later by running their -install.sh scripts.

      -
    8. - -
    9. -

      The floppies/ subdirectory contains the floppy installation -images; further information on using them can be found in Section -1.3.

      -
    10. - -
    11. -

      The packages and ports directories -contain the FreeBSD Packages and Ports Collections. Packages may be installed from the -packages directory by running the command:

      - -
      -# sysinstall configPackages
      -
      - -

      Packages can also be installed by feeding individual filenames in packages/ to the -pkg_add(1) -command.

      - -

      The Ports Collection may be installed like any other distribution and requires about -190MB unpacked. More information on the ports collection may be obtained from http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ or -locally from /usr/share/doc/handbook if you've installed the -doc distribution.

      -
    12. - -
    13. -

      Last of all, the tools directory contains various DOS tools -for discovering disk geometries, installing boot managers and the like. It is purely -optional and provided only for user convenience.

      -
    14. -
    - -

    A typical distribution directory (for example, the info -distribution) looks like this internally:

    - -
    -CHECKSUM.MD5    info.ab         info.ad         info.inf        install.sh
    -info.aa         info.ac         info.ae         info.mtree
    -
    - -

    The CHECKSUM.MD5 file contains MD5 signatures for each file, -should data corruption be suspected, and is purely for reference. It is not used by the -actual installation and does not need to be copied with the rest of the distribution -files. The info.a* files are split, gzip'd tar files, the -contents of which can be viewed by doing:

    - -
    -# cat info.a* | tar tvzf -
    -
    - -

    During installation, they are automatically concatenated and extracted by the -installation procedure.

    - -

    The info.inf file is also necessary since it is read by the -installation program in order to figure out how many pieces to look for when fetching and -concatenating the distribution. When putting distributions onto floppies, the .inf file must occupy the first floppy of each distribution set!

    - -

    The info.mtree file is another non-essential file which is -provided for user reference. It contains the MD5 signatures of the unpacked distribution files and can be -later used with the -mtree(8) program -to verify the installation permissions and checksums against any possible modifications -to the file. When used with the base distribution, this can be -an excellent way of detecting trojan horse attacks on your system.

    - -

    Finally, the install.sh file is for use by those who want to -install the distribution after installation time. To install the info distribution from -CDROM after a system was installed, for example, you'd do:

    - -
    -# cd /cdrom/info
    -# sh install.sh
    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3 Upgrading FreeBSD

    - -

    These instructions describe a procedure for doing a binary upgrade from an older -version of FreeBSD.

    - -
    -
    -

    Warning: While the FreeBSD upgrade procedure does its best to safeguard against -accidental loss of data, it is still more than possible to wipe out your entire disk with this installation! Please do -not accept the final confirmation request unless you have adequately backed up any -important data files.

    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    Important: These notes assume that you are using the version of -sysinstall(8) -supplied with the version of FreeBSD to which you intend to upgrade. Using a mismatched -version of -sysinstall(8) is -almost guaranteed to cause problems and has been known to leave systems in an unusable -state. The most commonly made mistake in this regard is the use of an old copy of -sysinstall(8) -from an existing installation to upgrade to a newer version of FreeBSD. This is not recommended.

    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    Warning: Binary upgrades to FreeBSD 6.3-RELEASE from FreeBSD 4-STABLE are not -supported at this time. There are some files present in a FreeBSD 4-STABLE whose presence -can be disruptive, but are not removed by a binary upgrade. One notable example is that -an old /usr/include/g++ directory will cause C++ programs to -compile incorrectly (or not at all).

    - -

    These upgrade instructions are provided for the use of users upgrading from relatively -recent FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE snapshots.

    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3.1 Introduction

    - -

    The upgrade procedure replaces distributions selected by the user with those -corresponding to the new FreeBSD release. It preserves standard system configuration -data, as well as user data, installed packages and other software.

    - -

    Administrators contemplating an upgrade are encouraged to study this section in its -entirety before commencing an upgrade. Failure to do so may result in a failed upgrade or -loss of data.

    - -
    -
    -

    3.1.1 Upgrade Overview

    - -

    Upgrading of a distribution is performed by extracting the new version of the -component over the top of the previous version. Files belonging to the old distribution -are not deleted.

    - -

    System configuration is preserved by retaining and restoring the previous version of -the following files:

    - -

    Xaccel.ini, XF86Config, adduser.conf, aliases, aliases.db, amd.map, crontab, csh.cshrc, csh.login, csh.logout, cvsupfile, dhclient.conf, disktab, dm.conf, dumpdates, exports, fbtab, fstab, ftpusers, gettytab, gnats, group, hosts, hosts.allow, hosts.equiv, hosts.lpd, inetd.conf, localtime, login.access, login.conf, mail, mail.rc, make.conf, manpath.config, master.passwd, motd, namedb, networks, newsyslog.conf, nsmb.conf, nsswitch.conf, pam.conf, passwd, periodic, ppp, printcap, profile, pwd.db, rc.conf, rc.conf.local, rc.firewall, rc.local, remote, resolv.conf, rmt, sendmail.cf, sendmail.cw, services, shells, skeykeys, spwd.db, ssh, syslog.conf, ttys, uucp

    - -

    The versions of these files which correspond to the new version are moved to /etc/upgrade/. The system administrator may peruse these new -versions and merge components as desired. Note that many of these files are -interdependent, and the best merge procedure is to copy all site-specific data from the -current files into the new.

    - -

    During the upgrade procedure, the administrator is prompted for a location into which -all files from /etc/ are saved. In the event that local -modifications have been made to other files, they may be subsequently retrieved from this -location.

    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3.2 Procedure

    - -

    This section details the upgrade procedure. Particular attention is given to items -which substantially differ from a normal installation.

    - -
    -
    -

    3.2.1 Backup

    - -

    User data and system configuration should be backed up before upgrading. While the -upgrade procedure does its best to prevent accidental mistakes, it is possible to -partially or completely destroy data and configuration information.

    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3.2.2 Mount Filesystems

    - -

    The disklabel editor is entered with the nominated disk's filesystem devices listed. -Prior to commencing the upgrade, the administrator should make a note of the device names -and corresponding mountpoints. These mountpoints should be entered here. Do not set the “newfs flag” -for any filesystems, as this will cause data loss.

    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3.2.3 Select Distributions

    - -

    When selecting distributions, there are no constraints on which must be selected. As a -general rule, the base distribution should be selected for an -update, and the man distribution if manpages are already -installed. Other distributions may be selected beyond those originally installed if the -administrator wishes to add additional functionality.

    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3.2.4 After Installation

    - -

    Once the installation procedure has completed, the administrator is prompted to -examine the new configuration files. At this point, checks should be made to ensure that -the system configuration is valid. In particular, the /etc/rc.conf and /etc/fstab files should -be checked.

    -
    -
    - -
    -
    -

    3.3 Upgrading from Source Code

    - -

    Those interested in an upgrade method that allows more flexibility and sophistication -should take a look at The Cutting Edge in the FreeBSD Handbook. This procedure involves -rebuilding all of FreeBSD from source code. It requires reliable network connectivity, -extra disk space, and time, but has advantages for networks and other more complex -installations. This is roughly the same procedure as is used for track the -STABLE or --CURRENT development branches.

    - -

    /usr/src/UPDATING contains important information on updating -a FreeBSD system from source code. It lists various issues resulting from changes in -FreeBSD that may affect an upgrade.

    -

    -
    -

    4 Troubleshooting

    - -
    -

    4.1 Repairing an Existing FreeBSD -Installation

    - -

    FreeBSD features a “fixit” option in the top menu of the -sysinstall(8) -installation program. It provides a shell with common programs from the FreeBSD base -system; this environment is useful for repairing or troubleshooting an existing FreeBSD -installation. To use fixit mode, you will also need either the fixit.flp floppy, generated in the same fashion as the boot -floppies, or the “live filesystem” CDROM. In multi-disk FreeBSD -distributions, the live filesystem image is typically located on the installation disk. -Note that some UNIX system administration experience is required to use the fixit -option.

    - -

    Generally, there are two ways of invoking fixit mode. Users who can boot from the -FreeBSD installation CDROM, should do so and then choose the “fixit” item -from the main -sysinstall(8) -menu. Then select the “CDROM/DVD” option from the fixit menu.

    - -

    Users who cannot boot from CDROM, but can boot from floppy disk, require a few more -steps. In addition to the boot.flp and kernX.flp disks required for -installation, create the fixit.flp floppy disk, in the same way -as the other floppy disks. Follow the instructions for booting the installation program -from floppy disk until reaching the main -sysinstall(8) -menu. At that point, choose the “fixit” item from the main -sysinstall(8) -menu. Then select the “Floppy” option from the fixit menu, and insert the fixit.flp floppy disk when prompted to do so.

    - -

    The CDROM and floppy fixit environments are similar, but not identical. Both offer a -shell with a variety of commands available for checking, repairing and examining -filesystems and their contents. The CDROM version of fixit provides all of the commands -and programs available in the FreeBSD base system, through the live filesystem. By -contrast, the floppy fixit environment can only offer a subset of commands due to space -constraints.

    - -

    In the floppy version of fixit, some standalone utilities can be found in /stand or /mnt2/stand. In the CDROM -version of fixit, these same programs can be found in /stand or -/mnt2/rescue (as well as the rest of the programs from the live -filesystem, which can be found under /mnt).
