First off, kudos to Jason, Scott, Dave and anyone who worked on the 1.3
release! Things have come a long way since 1.0 (Heck, you made big strides
between 1.2 & 1.3!)
I have 2 twin 375s that had been running 1.2.1, and I've got them
connected on their own little private network for the upgrade to 1.3.
I've upgraded 1 machine without incident (or, all incidents were
self-induced) and was about to run disklabel to install SYS_INST on the
second disk, when I got nervous, and decided to make sure that I could
NFS mount the newly 1.3 machine to copy the miniroot.
I can mount the drive without an error, but I can't SEE anything on
it (permission denied, including the mount point after I've mounted
it) Mounting read-only doesn't change this odd behaviour.
So, I know NFS got a facelift in this release, and I was wondering if
the /etc/exports file format changed (the man page is identical).
What's really strange is that the 1.3 machine can mount the 1.2.1
partition (with a nearly identical /etc/exports) normally.
I've moved all of the old binaries in /sbin to *.1.2, so I don't think
THAT'S the problem, and I can't find anything else that might be causing
it.
I'm sure this is a simple problem with a simple solution, which has made
it's tenacity all the more frustrating.
Just for the record, the 1.3 /etc/exports (it's simple):
/local -maproot=0 192.168.1.1
-
My SIMM question is shorter (I promise) I have 4 SIMMs that are allegedly
from a 345. They seem to fit my 375, but when the machine memory tests on
boot, I get parity errors. Are these SIMMs compatable with the 375?
(The fact that I get a parity error would suggest not, but would also
suggest that it's not a matter of clipping a resistor to announce their
existence.)
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks
