  • (Quote) You mean the tunefs -m? That won't do anything to fix the inodes issue - it only allows non-root users to use a bit more of the filesystem space.
  • (Quote) Interesting, I only ever get as far as this with OpenBSD: (Image) Not that I really want to use OpenBSD, was just curious...
  • (Quote) You can always limit the build job to a single core and/or periodically send it SIGSTOP/SIGCONT signals to pause it for a bit.
  • (Quote) So it would have worked with the new filesystem settings with the original disk space allocation. (Quote) Well... there is a 512 MB swap partition you could use as a temporary alternative root filesystem.
  • (Quote) Yes, that's the inodes/filesystem overhead (and there is a 512 MB swap partition). BTW, you can also look at the partitions with gpt show ld0 and dkctl ld0 listwedges
  • (Quote) BTW, I actually tried booting into the OpenBSD 7.6 installer (via netboot.xyz) when it was released, but it did hang just before getting to user space.
  • (Quote) I believe your version of the image might actually just resize the partition and file system on the next reboot (that's because in the first version I didn't mount the filesystem with the "log" option). Later versions now use the …
  • BTW, the actual maximum number of inodes is 3117310 (3100457 was the number of available inodes on my system), but I think df only shows that number when using df -G / (and the values are currently swapped around on 10.0).
  • (Quote) Sorry... that's just the (max) number of inodes you will get when re-installing NetBSD from my template on that particular VM. See the newfs man page: -i bytes-per-inode This specifies the density of inodes in the file syst…
  • (Quote) Was actually wondering how many inodes you had used compared to the new max of 3100457 - your 795510 will still comfortably fit into that max.
  • (Quote) Most likely memory reserved by RH kernels for kdump.
  • (Quote) Looks like you didn't start with the new NetBSD template, which would have given you maybe 4 GB more space on the file system (not sure if that would have been enough space). Just out of interest, how many inodes are you using? df -hi / Fi…
  • (Quote) Thanks so much. The NetBSD 10 image works as expected. The NetBSD 9.4 image works, except that it doesn't see any configuration data, so no network or SSH keys are configured. I am not sure if this an issue with NetBSD 9.4 or if that config…
  • (Quote) This is what you get with a new NetBSD 10 install: # df -mi /Filesystem 1M-blocks Used Avail %Cap iUsed iAvail %iCap Mounted on/dev/dk2 24316 441 22659 1% 15723 3101587 0% /
  • OpenBSD 7.6 has been released.
  • (Quote) Yes, your image will be affected, a quick way to tell is to run df -mi / In the iAvail column it will likely show something like 20 million inodes (instead of maybe 3 million), but in the 1M-blocks column you'll likely only see around 20000…
  • Made another update to the NetBSD 10.0 image to use more useful parameters during filesystem creation (only realised over the weekend that the scripts I based my image creation on used some rather questionable filesystem settings that result in an a…
  • (Quote) How much more expensive are they, or did you get a special deal and they are price-matching Hetzner?
  • (Quote) BTW, did you check IPv6 setup? Had another quick look into FreeBSD land, and I don't think IPv6 was set up for me there.
  • (Quote) 99.99 % sounds interesting (that's like 5 minutes per month?) - what HA infrastructure do you have in place to make that guarantee?
  • (Quote) Thanks, it did install with the new image now.
  • (Quote) It still seems to be rebuilding from the old image (for me on kvmtx12). I can see that you have downloaded the updated image (netbsd-10.0-v3.qcow2).
  • (Quote) Ahh, yes... Guess upgrading the kernel first, rebooting and then updating userland would have been the safer option :o So maybe: sysupgrade fetch, sysupgrade kernel, reboot, sysupgrade auto
  • (Quote) I am installing "base etc kern-GENERIC man modules rescue" now. (Quote) I don't think it would make a lot of sense as the image would be quite large and as NetBSD-current changes daily, the image would need to change very frequent…
  • I have created a new NetBSD 10.0 image with these changes: * certificates are now set up correctly out of the box (thanks @Not_Oles for pointing that out) * use "log" option on the root filesystem * pre-install "modules" and &qu…
  • (Quote) There is an A record and an SMTP server listening: 220 dweb.five-host.com ESMTP Exim 4.98 Wed, 02 Oct 2024 14:23:18 +0300
  • (Quote) Unless you really want to rebuild everything from source, you can just use sysupgrade (from pkgsrc) and point it to the latest HEAD build.
  • (Quote) I don't think you need to do any bootstrapping on NetBSD, just cd to the package you want to build and type make there. (Quote)
  • (Quote) but only from providers with a provider tag. :p
  • I think you can install the compiler by just doing: ftp -o - https://cdn.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-10.0/amd64/binary/sets/comp.tar.xz | progress -z tar xpf - -C / Alternatively, you could use sysinst to install additional packages (but need to …
  • (Quote) I think a certctl rehash is missing (I need to add that to the image creation). PKG_PATH is already set in /etc/pkg_install.conf for that image, so with a fresh install you can currently do: NetBSD 10.0 (GENERIC) #0: Thu Mar 28 08:33:33 UTC…
