I say "I think" because these things take so long that I don't watch them closely. Buildkernel went fine, and installkernel went fine too. I dropped to single user... but the installworld command barfed an error: It could not find GNU/?iforget?/libg2a or something like that (I'm pretty sure of the lib and the g2a). I'm sort of a newbie with this, so is this system now too inconsistent to run if it restarts, and is there any thing I can try? Yes I've got backup and fixit disks --Oh, i used -DNOGAMES and -DNOFORTRAN too to buildworld and installworld.
