Hello, I've installed FreeBSD2.2.6 on a HP vectra XU (bi-processor Intel Pentium 200, Ultra SCSI adaptec 7880, 128Mb RAM) on my second SCSI 2Gb hard drive (first one is under NT) I used to get under FreeBSD by putting a boot-floppy disk and at boot prompt write : 1:sd(1,0)/kernel Everything was all right, I've installed lot of things which run perfectly, rebuild the kernel to fin to my computer. Everything got well. But yesterday, I decided to upgrade to FreeBSD3.0 so I got a tar archive of the 3.0-980520-SNAP, copy the sources, ran the installation script for the /bin directory, also ran the install script for the port directory (of the 3.0 of course), tried to re-build the kernel (but not succeded because of an error at config time : files.i386 : i386/isa/npx.c must be optional or standard, so I let the old kernel as it was) and... reboot. Now by booting with 1:sd(1,0)/kernel, I get : mount : exec mount_ not found in /sbin/, /usr/sbin : no such file or directory File mount failed, startup aborted Enter FullPathname or shell or return for /bin/sh So I type RETURN, get a prompt. Doing df show only the partition / All other partitions are not mounted. And In this only partition, I can't write anything, because each time I try to, I get read only filesystem. So what can I do ? Do I have to re-install everything ? And was it the right procedure to get to FreeBSD3.0 ?? Thanks a lot for reply, Tram -- Universite de Versailles dntt@prism.uvsq.fr http://www.ens-info.uvsq.fr:8000/~dntt/index.html Il y a au moins deux façons de programmer la même chose.
