Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG We are NEWBIES and we are trying to install and configure FreeBSD. I was reading the installation manual going through everything step. The manual suggested to move /var to /usr/var. I copied the /var directory to /usr/var and then tried to remove /var from the root directory. I can not successfully remove /var. I continue to get an error saying rm: /var: Device busy. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, natalie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
