I had to shutdown the computer via the power switch several times. One of the crashes/restarts seems to have damaged the filesystem in someway. The symptoms are: 1) man reports the error message: "Couldn't open /usr/libexec/ld.so". Out of curiosity I executed man in the gnu debugger, gdb, and it ran fine. Other executables seem fine, vi, ed, sysinstall, user and group management command, gdb. 2) no user except root can login, login reports: "/usr/local/bin/tcsh: Permission denied". The same result with /bin/sh as the login shell. 3) fcsk does not report any problems with the filesystems. The obvious answer is to reinstall FreeBSD, but that's the Microsoft answer. I was hoping that someone could give me some insight into the problem, at least for academic purposes if nothing else. Also, is the Cirrus Logic CL-6730 PCMCIA controller supported with straight FreeBSD or are the PAO patches required? Boot message seem to indicate that the controller (controllers plural if the notebook is in the port replicator) are being identified: Probing for devices on PCI bus 0: chip0 rev 2 on pci0:0 chip1 rev 3 on pci0:1 chip2 rev 0 on pci0:17 chip3 rev 254 int a irq ?? on pci0:19:0 vga0 rev 0 int a irq ?? on pci0:20 Probing for devices on PCI bus 1: chip4 rev 238 int a irq ?? on pci1:10:0 But, it later complains that /dev/card0 is not configured. It reports the same error whether the 3C589/3C589B NIC is in the notebook itself or the port replicator. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
