I finally ran mergemaster -p and it asked questions that gave options to merge, delete, exit or use as is some files, I answered with merge, and another was a question if I wanted to install it, I answered yes. It finished okay. I rebooted and was unable to log in on any account. I rebooted to single user mode and ran passwd and the response was root was not a valid account. I ran sysinstall and added a user name for myself, rebooted and am able to get in as regular user, but there is no root account. I checked /etc/passed file and in fact it has only one entry - the user account I had just added in sysinstall. There should be quite a few other accounts in there. So it appears I still need to do something to get that up to snuff, but what? Sorry I don't recall the questions from mergemaster -p, it's late and I need to get to bed. :) I'll work on this some more tomorrow.
