Description tomaz.borstnar 2004-09-07 18:40:28 UTC 
Trying to install official (miniinst) ISO of 5.3beta3-amd64 which ALWAYS fails during copyingfiles on mirror volume on ServeRAID-6m.

Here are two attempts:

-------
panic: ffs_valloc: dup alloc
cpuid = 1
KDB: enter: panic
[thread 100108]
Stopped at     kdb_enter+0x2f: nop

--- syscall (136, FreeBSD ELF64, mkdir), rip = 0x520ecc, rsp = 0x7fffffffe588, rbp = 0x803120

-----
Another attempt. Same volume, same settings except for soft-updates being off...
Installation stopped by not being able to read from CD. After retrying to read the distribution again I got:
panic: ufsdirhash_findslot: 'atacontrol' not found
cpuid = 1
KDB enter: panic

How-To-Repeat: Boot official mini inst ISO of 5.3beta3-amd64.

Things are getting worse. Now it does not even boot into sysinstall! It hangs after printing out lines for bge0.
Comment 2 tomaz.borstnar 2004-10-10 13:52:09 UTC 
Beta7 boots properly, but install fails while installing files on raid1 volume. Message on alt-f1 is:

bin/csh
/stand/cpio: bin/csh linked to bin/tcsh
bin/tcsh
/stand/gunzip: <fd:0>: invalid stored block lengths
bin/date
/stand/cpio: premature end of file

I tried with cd-rw and cd-r medium. Basically this is old error from beta2.

Nothing new with 5.3 release. It stops installing (copying) files to 
volumes with I/O error. Source upgrade from 5.2.x might work, but 5.2.x 
does not know about Adaptec IDs for ServeRAID 6M :(
Comment 4 tomaz.borstnar 2005-08-23 19:29:39 UTC 
This is now fixed with 5.4. It boots fine and when I select option to 
use USB keyboard I can install it successfully and works fine after 
final reboot. So consider this PR closed.

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

submitter said this has been fixed in 5.4
