It crashes at the exact same spot over and over on multiple different commands. I had a 5.1 - 5.2 upgrade via cvsup that went terribly wrong. The machine got rebooted and certain things would no longer work. I cannot get a make world, or make buildworld to work. Errors on on the mtree command with: mtree -deU -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.include.dist -p /usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/include *** Signal 12 When I try the line manually I get: bash-2.05b# mtree -deU -f /usr/src/etc/mtree/BSD.include.dist -p /usr/obj/usr/src/i386/usr/include Bad system call (core dumped) I have tried brining in a new kernel and /usr/bin and /usr/src from another machine. The problems just seem to get worse Before we were only dumping on sendmail, now I have: pid 421 (sendmail), uid 25: exited on signal 12 pid 436 (cron), uid 0: exited on signal 12 (core dumped) pid 509 (mysqld), uid 88: exited on signal 12 pid 534 (bandwidthd), uid 0: exited on signal 6 (core dumped) pid 585 (man), uid 0: exited on signal 12 (core dumped) pid 747 (mtree), uid 0: exited on signal 12 (core dumped) pid 860 (sendmail), uid 25: exited on signal 12 pid 865 (sendmail), uid 25: exited on signal 12 pid 880 (smbd), uid 1006: exited on signal 12 pid 923 (ftpd), uid 1006: exited on signal 12 pid 1018 (mtree), uid 0: exited on signal 12 (core dumped) pid 1110 (mtree), uid 0: exited on signal 12 (core dumped) pid 1111 (man), uid 0: exited on signal 12 (core dumped) Now, this is all messed up, We did save the original kernel, and the /usr/bin and /usr/src I was wondering... Can I use the sysinstall upgrade option off a CD boot to repair this?? If so what do I have to do since I have already been running cvsup upgrades? Sysinstall complained about this when I tried.
