john, I notice there is a 'getty' in /usr/libexec. I try and make all devices in single user mode with 'sh MAKEDEV all'. That did not fix problem. I mount all my slices 'rw' and cd into /usr/src to do 'make installworld' for second time. I hopes this works. I have second question I am unsure of. Is there anything special I have to do with 'mergemaster' remember I upgrade from 4.1-r to 4.1.1-stable. thank you. --- John Reynolds~ <jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com> wrote: > > [ On Monday, October 23, mike wrote: ] > > hello freebsd people, > > > > I cvsup'd 4.1.1-stable source tree today and I got > > very far accept something screwerd up which I do > not > > know how to fix. > > > > I did everything in /usr/src/UPDATING said to do > > now when I reboot my machine .. > > wether I boot the old or new kernel ..
