Hello, recently I decided to install -current on one of my computers but I ran into a problem with reading files from UFS: - some of the files have a part of them replaced - when I try to read them in 6-stable, they are fine; /boot/loader is always able to load kernel too - only files greater than 64KB are affected - the part that is replaced seems to be always 64KB big but doesn't begin on 64KB boundary - the data is usually replaced by \000s but sometimes it seems like a part of another file - the corrupted file(s) do not change unless I reboot/remount the fs - I have tried writing but didn't test it thoroughly; it seems to work without any problems (the files are readable from -stable just fine) The system is an uniprocessor Tyan S3970 (Broadcomm chipset) with Opteron 2210, 2GB RAM and 3 250GB disks. It works under -stable from last week just fine (dmesg is attached as 6_2.boot). I tried installing -current according to instructions in src/UPDATING (onto a separate partition): env -i make buildworld buildkernel # KERNCONF=GENERIC env -i make installworld distribution installkernel DESTDIR=... # edit ${DESTDIR}/etc/fstab etc. and it worked but kldxref complained about unknown metdata record (see attached file installkernel.err) - I'm not using any modules though. I'm attaching the dmesg from -current too (curr_a.boot). I tried waiting a couple of days, cvsupping new -current and trying it out but it behaved the same. Any help would be greatly appreciated, if you need some information I did not provide, let me know how to get it please and I shall post it to the list.
