Actually, I spoke too soon.  It did NOT get any farther.
The other abort is from a different PC (also with a new lfssystem) with
a limited menuconfig selection.  I got the same error on the PC with
everything selected:

It looks like there is at least two different aborts.

That error is supposed to happen. Kerberos doesn't compile at the moment 
with SSP enabled.
Just disable it in menuconfig and it should run through.

I was thinking for a while if we should enable the power management stuff.
Since you both agree with it, let's do it.

Agree, it should be added, IF it's not already there. (it may be)

Keep in mind that even Redhat (and others) will NOT power off machines
for certain types of hardware.  i.e. SMP boxes will not power off.
I'm not sure what happens if you're running a SMP kernel on a UP PC.

[Devil-linux-develop] [fmII] LILO 22.5.7 released (Default branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '22.5.7' of 'LILO'
through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can be found
at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/lilo/

The changes in this release are as follows:
Update with all the accumulated minor patches to the previous version.
A rewritten first-stage loader has been added to eliminate the FF
(screen clear) on startup in favor of a true Video Enable call, which
was used previously, but eliminated in recent versions due to code
space constraints. 

Project description:
LILO is a Boot loader for Linux/x86 and other PC operating systems. It
is responsible for loading your Linux kernel from either a floppy or
a hard drive and passing control to it. It is capable of booting
beyond cylinder 1024 of a hard disk if the BIOS supports EDD packet
call extensions to the int 0x13 interface. LILO can also be used to
boot many other operating systems, including DOS, Windows (all
versions), OS/2, and the BSD variants. The LILO distribution includes
full source, documentation and support files.

I saw this message, too. It must be something with the Kernel.
Kernel 2.4.22 seems to come out anyway soon, so just ignore it.

Try to stop the output by pressing SCROLL LOCK, it's bad when grsecurity 
reports a resource overstep. You need to know which program it is, 
otherwise you could run into problems.

[Devil-linux-develop] [0.6Beta1] One more bug to report...

[Dean N. <di...@ti...>]

I have one more bug to report on the latest beta release (08-08-i686-SMP).

When I go to shutdown the environment, I get the following error right after
"Stopping LVM [OK]":
flushing ide devices: hda hdb ide_cdrom_cleanup: hdb: failed to
ide_unregister_subdriver

If it is meaningful, hdb is my cdrom drive.

I am also getting a message from grsecurity about a resource over
allocation - but it scrolls off the screen before I can catch it.  (And
other than knowing it is just before or about the time of the DHCP update
for eth0, but before the WLAN stuff - I can't pin it down much.

Actually you have to change the init script.
I have it on my list to modify all init scripts, so this will work 
without any problems.

I don't know how many changes I can make to the system, before I go on 
vacation.
It would be good if others could take a look at it, too.

Hey,

how was the vacation?

We did so many changes, so you start with a clean lfssystem.
The patch where it fails (pcwd driver) didn't get modified for a while, 
so it should work fine.

[Devil-linux-develop] [0.6Beta1] New Release, New Bug Report!

[Dean N. <di...@ti...>]

[Using the 08-08-i686-SMP release]

Tried the latest release, and got some of the latest errors! :-)

o At "Running ldconfig", I got the following errors:

ldconfig: Can't link /lib/libstdc++.so.2.8 to libstdc++.so.2.8.0
ldconfig: Can't link /lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 to
libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so
ldconfig: Can't link /lib/libg++.so.2.7.2 to libg++.so.2.7.2.8

o At "Starting WLAN", I got a -lot- of errors.  Now then, I don't -have-
WLAN configured.  However, it is not an option in config - according to
/etc/init.d/network it will always run the wlan startup (and there is
nothing in /etc/init.d/wlan to search the config file either!).

o Intermixed with the WLAN errors (maybe related, maybe not), I got:
dot11PrivacyOptionImplemented mibget failed

o I also received the following error for Postfix:
tar (child): cdrom/packages/POSTFIX.tar.bz2: Cannot open: No such file or
directory

o At "Starting LVM", I get some errors complaining that LVM is not setup on
this box.  That is correct.  However, why is it trying to start LVM at all?

Now, to some questions:

o Why are we still running "Updating module dependencies"?
 Since -everything- is now installed, don't we -know- the module
dependencies?

o Why are we running ldconfig?  (Similar line of thought)

o (This actually applies to previous releases as well.) I had the situation
because of DHCP where I DIDN'T want Postfix to start at startup, but rather
through one of my routines (which would then call /etc/init.d/postfix).  If
I set START_POSTFIX to no, then not only doesn't it start at startup, it
can't be started at all! (/etc/init.d/postfix checks for this value.)  How
do I set this up (without changing /etc/init.d/postfix)?

It looks like the bash-2.05b.tar.gz file you got from our FTP Server wa=

bad or not completely downloaded.

I upload it again, just to make sure it's ok.

I started 3 times the build process trying different things ...

- impossible to compile without SSP !
- always problem with bash but i downloaded sources from 

http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/bash/bash-2.05b.tar.gz

then untar in buid/tmp directory then re execute make build install iso dist and
it works !!! strange things %-}

It looks good. So far I didn't get any more error messages.

Everything else should compile fine, I just did 2 fresh compiles yester=
day
(including fresh lfssystem).
Check again against CVS and the FTP server. I just set the file permiss=
ions
on the FTP server again, in case I missed something.
It is also a good idea to throw away your current lfssystem and unpack =
it
again.

I just checked in a few more updates into CVS and uploaded updates to t=

FTP Server.
Those changes should hopefully fix the last issues with the "GCC SSP".
You will have to do a "make mrproper" or you just wait until my tests a=

[Devil-linux-develop] [fmII] OpenVPN 1.5-beta4 released (Development branch)

[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '1.5-beta4' of
'OpenVPN' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information can
be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/openvpn/

The changes in this release are as follows:
This release includes the long-awaited port of OpenVPN to Windows
2000/XP, adding to OpenVPN's already wide cross-platform span, which
includes Linux, *BSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris. In this beta, Win32
installation has been greatly streamlined with the completion of a
self-installing exe, based on the Nullsoft install system. In
addition, TCP support has been added as a tunnel transport option.  

Project description:
OpenVPN is a robust and highly configurable VPN (Virtual Private
Network) daemon which can be used to securely link two or more
private networks using an encrypted tunnel over the Internet.
OpenVPN's principal strengths include wide cross-platform
portability, excellent stability, support for dynamic IP addresses
and NAT, adaptive link compression, single TCP/UDP port usage, a
modular design that offloads most crypto tasks to the OpenSSL
library, and relatively easy installation that in most cases doesn't
require a special kernel module.  

If you would like to cancel subscription to releases of this project,
login to freshmeat.net and choose 'home' from the personal menubar at the
top of the page. You'll be presented with a list of projects you're
subscribed to in the right column, which you may cancel by highlighting
the project in question and clicking the 'delete' button.

Sincerely,
