With 4.6.2-RELEASE, you should have version 1.212.2.50 --- line 427 is right after the network_pass2 function is called. Guess your copy has got a bit corrupted during your upgrade process. Boot into single user mode, and mount your filesystems (as for installworld), and copy the default /etc/rc script from /usr/src: cd /etc mv rc rc.old cp /usr/src/etc/rc rc chown root:wheel rc chmod 644 /etc/rc and then reboot. If you haven't got a good copy of the /etc/rc script available you can download it from: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/etc/rc?rev=1.212.2.50&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
