Hi, Danny. Did you interrupt the boot process by pressing another key besides the enter key at the point where you're prompted to press enter, wait, or press another key? Then did you type "boot -s" at the boot prompt? Why wouldn't it bring you in? Did you get an error message? The missing PAM library shouldn't affect /bin/sh, since it's statically linked. If you have the CD-ROMs, try using disk 2. That has a "live" filesystem on it. If you choose "CDROM" from the "Fixit" menu, you should have everything you need to fix the problem. Perhaps you could mount your /usr/ prtition and copy the PAM library from the CD-ROM onto that, or restore the file from your backup (if you have one). Good luck! __ Trevor Johnson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
