Description Marko Radojcic 2014-04-02 23:40:00 UTC
Hello,

I've tried installing FreeBSD 10 i386 release, from disk1.iso,
bootonly.iso and .img for memstick but the same problem presents itself
(I've checked the hashes after downloading the images). I'm running
these tests in KVM/QEMU on Ubuntu Linux 64 bit.

After the installation "succeeds" the file /etc/devd.conf reports an
error during first boot - something about not being parseable, and when
looking at the file (the boot process continues, but it doesn't generate
the host keys and probably other tasks don't complete). The file is
obviously corrupted, when looking at it I get a bunch of
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ characters at the end.

The problem that this imposes is that it is impossible to install pkg
tool by using pkg -vvv because the downloaded archive fails the check.
I'm not sure if this is due to my configuration QEMU/KVM running on 64bit
Ubuntu but I thought I should report this here. I downloaded a 64bit
bootonly.iso and installed without a problem.

Best regards,

Marko Radojcic

FreeBSD 10 is defunct. So closing this. In fact there are issues with latest versions create a new one.
