I went into single user mode I think after the installkernel. Its only been my third time upgrading since my induction to the daemon way, but I haven't had a problem till now....... _________________________________________ Steiny's Studio Pachyderm Productions http://steiny.hypermart.net mailto:info@steiny.hypermart.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
