I had a similar problem just yesterday. Running mergemaster again did not fix the issue. In my situation I messed up the /etc/defaults/rc.conf. It gave me several error messages on boot up similar to yours. I just copied the rc.conf from the examples directory and replaced the rc.conf in /etc/defaults/rc.conf. Then I did a: shutdown now exit It was working okay when I left this morning. I am not sure if this is a good idea or not. I just know it seems to have solved my problem. I would keep a backup of the original file somewhere in case you need to revert back to the original. Chuck
