Thank you so much, jggimi !

After reading your question:

do you mean to say you see segfaults with NO PACKAGES installed at all?
|
I got suspicious about whether I actually first saw the segfault before installing packages or afterwards .. what I've done is : backup & fresh install , same OpenBSD current version cd , same disk ..
sysctl kern.version :
Code:
kern.version=OpenBSD 5.2 (GENERIC) #237: Tue Jul 24 09:46:09 MDT 2012
deraadt@macppc.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/macppc/compile/GENERIC
This time , No segfault ..
( but I still receive those 'wd0: soft error (corrected) ... device timeout writing fsbn ***** of ******* , retrying ..... )
Something funny to happen again : I downloaded the macppc sets and put them in/ for a disk-based upgrade as I don't trust ftp upgrade on this old iMac .. put bsd.rd in / and rebooted ..
I've reset boot-device to hd:,ofwboot /bsd .. I chose bsd.rd and got this error :
Code:
booting /pci/mac-io/ide@20000/disk@0:bsd.rd: read header failed (0) . will try /bsd
and got stuck there .. does it mean iMac's Christmas festivities are over :-) ?
"Legacy hardware have their issue" once said ocicat .. ya true .. but what's to be done ? iMac's infatuation with Puffy :-)
(Note: those errors don't occur on ibook g3 running the latest snaphots.)
A question off-topic :
When upgrading , do I have to use a respective new bsd.rd to boot from ? or does an old bsd.rd existing in / do the job ?
