I tried doing it from 3.4-RELEASE a few times, as well as from 3.4-STABLE on the same box, and I got the same error every time. I ended up booting to the 3.4 install disk and reinstalling 3.4 with sysinstall to fix it, because sh and csh would crash with a signal 12 every time. I got the following error each time: ===> bin/sync install -c -s -o root -g wheel -m 555 sync /bin install -c -o root -g wheel -m 444 sync.8.gz /usr/share/man/man8 ===> bin/test install -c -s -o root -g wheel -m 555 test /bin *** Signal 12 Stop. *** Error code 12 ------- Scott Burns scott@wpsystems.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
