When I initially installed the system, I went overboard and loaded many applications that I thought I'd get around to running/playing with. When I learned later that I was quickly running out of hard disk space, I decided to pkg_delete many of the items I felt I no longer needed. Apparently, I went overboard!!! Now when I boot my machine, I receive the following error login: Nov 29 04:26:46 steins init: Can't exec getty '/usr/local/sbin/mgetty' for port /dev/cuaa1: no such file or directory The mgetty program appears to be missing from /usr/local/sbin. My problem is that I don't know where it went or how to get it back. Any ideas? It doesn't seem to be adversly affecting my machine; I can still login, dial up my ISP, etc. Unfortunately, it keeps leaving me lots of these nagging messages on my screen. BTW, I'm planning on upgrading to 2.2.8. Will this take care of the problem?
