Hello, I've a friend's HDD I need to dd+fix; it's attached on a Sharkoon USB3 disk enclosure. As the disk has some bad blocks, the umass driver keeps detaching it after 5 retries, which is PITA as I need first to do a dd of it. It's a FreeBSD 10 box. Disk is nicely attached: Aug 28 19:28:04...

Suppose I have two Kindles of the same model (but differing serial numbers, natch). I wish to open the particular Kindle that has a given serial number. The Kindles have been connected to the host in an arbitrary order. How do I open the right Kindle? Looking at /dev/ugen* (or /dev/usb/*), I...

Hi, I'm trying to set my default sound device in FreeBSD 10.3 and, according to the handbook, the variable hw.snd.default_unit needs to be set pointing to the correct pcm (in my case, and according to /dev/sndstat, it's pcm6). So, I add hw.snd.default_unit=6 in /etc/sysctl.conf but, when system...

Hello to everyone there! So, here is my problem. I did install "automount". It works with USB and CD/DVD devices. But here is the thing: I can't move archives into the USB device, I can only copy them from the USB to the machine; also I can't burn ISO images in a CD or DVD (I proved with...

Hi all, I’m testing an external USB drive as a one-off backup. I can send / recv without any problem. However, as soon as I reattach the USB drive again, the datasets are mounted on the same paths. Not a fun place to be in. I could set the canmount property after the receive but I’m wondering...

Hello :) I have a problem regarding USB and SD card reader : USB : automount works very well but I must be root to write or clear something, else I can just read. SDCARD : sometimes automount works, and sometimes not. When It works, it is just readable and I must be root to write or erase...

Good afternoon all, I've noticed that there is a BIOS update for my Lenovo T440. The download is an ISO file which strikes me as a little odd since the laptop doesn't have an optical drive... My first thought was to install syslinux onto a USB stick, loopback mount the ISO and copy the files...

Hi, I've been playing with the Linuxulator in an attempt to be able to do FPGA programming entirely in FreeBSD. I have the Altera Quartus software (which is unfortunately only provided as a Linux binary) running fine now after much work, mainly in installing libraries manually before I realised...

Hi, I downloaded an 2,7 GB ISO image and copied to a pen drive formatted as ext2. The copying progress started with a write speed of 3 MB/s and went slower and slower and ended with a write speed of 627 KB/s. The copy process took me 47 minutes and I decided to test the write speed of Debian...
