Hi,

it seems that the build procedure for the floppy images on i386
hasn't been updated after the "vnd can have disklabel" changes.
First off, I had to change /dev/vnd0a to /dev/vnd0d in the
Makefile to make vnconfig happy, since it otherwise said "device
not configured".  This made it go this far:

===> ramdisk
dd if=/dev/zero of=ramdisk-12G.fs count=2880
2880+0 records in
2880+0 records out
1474560 bytes transferred in 1 secs (1474560 bytes/sec)
vnconfig -t floppy3 -v -c /dev/vnd0d ramdisk-12G.fs
/dev/vnd0d: 1474560 bytes on ramdisk-12G.fs using geometry 512/18/2/80
newfs -m 0 -o space -i 5120 -c 80 /dev/rvnd0d floppy3
/dev/rvnd0d:    2880 sectors in 80 cylinders of 2 tracks, 18 sectors
        1.4MB in 1 cyl groups (80 c/g, 1.41MB/g, 320 i/g)
super-block backups (for fsck -b #) at:
 32,newfs: ioctl (WDINFO): No such process
newfs: /dev/rvnd0d: can't rewrite disk label

*** Error code 1

Stop.

Oops.

Further testing reveals that it is indeed the missing disklabel
which is the problem, so the build procedure needs to be updated
to take into account the need to put a proper disklabel on the
vnd device.  Attached is an approximation of a typescript showing
what I had to do to complete the construction of a boot floppy
image from yesterday's sources.


Regards,

- Havard
