      Just because that is true now doesn't mean that will be true in a couple hours. Timestamps are important.

        As I had asked before, since things keep getting astray, does the panic I received on my Soekris board after doing this process relevant to anything or should I be ignoring it?

                FYI i just committed some patches to pfSense repo which should fix the hangs and the panics.
                All those on non full installs of i386 grab the next snapshot and test when it comes out.

                  Since the snapshot builder won't be done with its current run for a while yet, I ran off an i386 full update on my builder and uploaded it here:
                  http://cvs.pfsense.org/~jimp/pfSense-Full-Update-2.0-BETA4-i386-20110127-1627.tgz

                  If someone wants to give that a shot, have at it. The amd64 builder doesn't take quite as long, it should be up in a couple hours, the nanobsd builds probably won't be up until after midnight.

                    Jimp,
                    does this have the kernel that had to be downloaded included or do we need to still do the update then download the kernel from ermal's post?
                    Thanks!

                      Ermal checked the patches into the repo so this should be equivalent to that, or better.

                        Sorry to be so dense… does this mean that the update that I'm performing right now will have the discussed fixes?

                          Not if you're doing an auto update. The snapshots are still building, probably won't be done for a couple hours.

                          I posted a URL earlier to a build I made for i386 full installs that should have the fixes, though it didn't fix my problem (FTP still has issues…)

                            I just installed your build from the link jimp…testing now...

                            Update: with the snap from your link the system did panic.

                            jimp, is the text dump in this build? i just went to look for it and do not see the file.

                              tested one more time and it crashed again. :(

                                Textdumps should be on in those builds… see my other post: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,32711.0.html

                                I guess just wait and try the 'real' snapshot when it uploads later tonight.

                                  yep, i saw the post and checked /var/crash
                                  nothing in the folder.

                                  will the build on the snap server be different then the one you posted?

                                    In theory it should be about the same, but in practice that isn't always the case.

                                      quick question, I am in the freeze/hang camp.  I don't get a kernel panic on the console, so when I update to the next snapshot should I expect a dump in /var/crash when the system hangs?

                                        No - the hangs you can't get out of except by a power cycle. There is no crash dump from a hang, only from a panic. (This thread is really for the panics… the hangs have a separate thread)

                                            Today one of the fw's (running "2.0-BETA5 (amd64) built on Thu Jan 27 19:46:43 EST 2011") managed to output something in /var/crash/ before it died.

                                            See attached files.
