Hey Darren >So, download the original 4.4-R files and put them in /etc. There are >some files you should leave untouched. Namely fstab, rc.conf, >resolv.conf, and your rebuilt master.passwd and group files. Once >you've done that, go through the make world process, running >`mergemaster -p` before the buildworld again just to double check that >the crucial files are sane enough for a make world. Oh man... i should have waited another 30 mins before just copying over the files i just got into the /etc/ dir. Oh well, i guess it's okay... i didn't change the /etc/group and /etc/master.passwd files though. >Does that make a bit more sense now? yes... this makes way more sense. You rock :) Thanks for all your help and patience Desmond To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
