I went to the Ports page at FBSD.org and downloaded the ports upgrade for my 2.2.6 release. The I did and add_pkg 227upgr.tgz and it seemed to install correctly. I looked in the /usr directory and there is *no* /ports subdirectory. I thought that the pkg_add upgradefilename installed the ports? 2. Next I figured I would just run sysinstall again to install the ports and when I ran /stand/sysinstall from root's home directory - I get the screen to shift to graphics and then it blows up and locks up my system with lots of error messages. They start like this: "wd3: wdcontrol:recal failed reading fsbn 0wd3: status 7f(rdy, wrt flt, seekdone, drq, ecc_cor, index, err) error wd3: wdunwedge failed...." help please... _____________________________________________________ David Shanes 7535 Metropolitan Drive dshanes@personalogic.com San Diego, CA 92108 Database Developer (619) 220-5800 x228 PersonaLogic, Inc.
