Thank you for the response.

Yup, did it twice to make sure. Unfortunately, I will have to wait until
Friday to do another cvsup, to see if this is fixed. Is there any other
analysis tool to see what is happening when I run it? (Other than truss
which outputs nothing at all)

My procedure has been:

cvsup stable-supfile
make clean
make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNEL=MACHINE_NAME
make installkernel KERNEL=MACHINE_NAME
reboot
boot -s
mount /; mount /usr; mount /var; mount /tmp
make installworld
mergemaster
reboot

This has worked countless times for me. I have checked, /proc is
mounted, and a single CPU machine that I cvsuped at the same time
has a top that is working.

Thank you for your time.

Andrew.
