framebuffer howto | kernel params | CARP
How having a nice framebuffer working on OpenBSD ?
Maybe should I use some kernel params, but I don't know how. What about the boot of OpenBSD there's no boot loader as lilo and you can let your kernels in "/". Maybe Something in the "mbr" of the ufs partition ?! Some interesting url's for me ? the last one ... How to kill a carp device ? ifconfig carp0 destroy dosen't work, ifconfig carp0 delete dosen't do anything. Used to linux (Gentoo, Slackware) I don't know much on *BSD ... for now !!  ThanX for your help.

>> How having a nice framebuffer working on OpenBSD ?
Is this for XWindows? In that case man fbdev should get you started pretty nicely. >> What about the boot of OpenBSD there's no boot loader as lilo and you can let your kernels in "/". I'm assuming you want to boot up a specific kernel. For an i386 architecture, you should hit a key like spacebar as the bootloader starts up. This will put you on a prompt, instead of loading up a kernel. Then type: boot hd0a:/kernelname This is assuming hd0a is where your / partition is. For example, to boot bsd.rd, I would do: boot hd0a:/bsd.rd This will boot up your selected kernel. >> How to kill a carp device ? Perhaps you should try ifconfig carp0 down first, and then destroy it?

more ??
>> Is this for XWindows?
Nope, this for not using it but having a nice 1024*768 ascii console, I beleive there is code in the kernel which allows that but how do I enable it. >> I'm assuming you want to boot up a specific kernel. In fact I've build my own kernel, and I'm using it, but I'd like to understand the magic of the booting process, I know a few about lilo stages, but nothing about the bsd booting process. >> How to kill a carp device ? Perhaps you should try ifconfig carp0 down first, and then destroy it? Code:
ifconfig carp0 create ifconfig carp0 vhid 5 pass password 192.100.0.100 ifconfig carp0 down ifconfig carp0 delete ifconfig: SIOCIFDESTROY; Operation not supported ifconfig carp0 destroy ifconfig: SIOCIFDESTROY; Operation not supported I've had a look in netinet/ip_carp.c int carp_ioctl(...) there is no code to handle these ioctls, so thanks for your answer, maybe more for me ???

For your first question, maybe man wsconscfg can help you out. There's a section there on loading different fonts and getting more lines of text on your text screen.
For your second question, man biosboot and man boot should give you some useful information.
