In an attempt to make more room on /usr, I did created a directory in /var for the libexec files. I copied the directory over and then linked with ln -s /var/libexec /usr/libexec. This has worked for several other directories that I had to move. Unfortunately, during the reboot the system is looking for /usr/libexec/dev/getty, which does not exist at this point, or so it seems. As a result, I can neither login via console or telnet (a similar message appears on the console). I had just finished upgrading from 2.2.8 to 3.1 stable via cvsup (RELENG_3). The system was in the process of make upgrade before the out of space warning. This had aborted the process and was when I started moving files. I have tried the recovery method, via the 2.2.6 CD, yet I can't seem to get any recognizable commands to the emergency shell. Any help other than reinstalling would be appreciated.
