Description Curtis Hacker 2008-09-06 02:10:00 UTC 
I can't get mdconfig to do anything on my amd64 box.

I have an identical machine on i386 running off a vmware machine, same
exact kernel specs / makefile, and no problems on mdconfig.

Decided to cvsup from the stable file provided in the
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile, rebuilt world, and now issues
with mdconfig.

Fix: 

run anything but amd64,:(

This sounds more like a upgrade which went wrong than a problem 
with mdconfig(8) since I have a lot of people saying that it works 
for them. 

Can you give the output of "ident `which mdconfig`" ?

ive got 3 total bsd boxes, on the latest stable sup (7.1 pre-release) 
and only amd64 is giving me problems with mdconfig.

I guess I could nuke my make.conf and rebuild just mdconfig

Curtis,

please tell us, if just running ``mdconfig'' is core dumping? Which
parameters are you using? What does ``mdconfig -l'' give?

Please provide gdb output (bt) of the failing mdconfig.

If nobody else can reproduce your problem, we need debugging information
from you.

Please report back if your problem has been solved by recompiling world.

Thanks

Volker
