It went fine without any errors. I believe ps was working at this time. I built a custom kernel and rebooted. Later, I noticed ps was broken. # ps ps: bad namelist # w w: /dev//umount: /proc: not currently mounted umount:: No such file or directory w: /dev// /var: not currently mounted umount: /usr: n: No such file or directory 6:27AM up 1 min, 1 user, load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 USER TTY FROM LOGIN@ IDLE WHAT root v0 - 6:27AM - w # I've seen that kind of behavior before and it's usually when I rebuild world and forget to make a new kernel. However, in this case, I haven't touched the source except to compile a kernel. Anyway, just to make sure something funky didn't happen last time, I recompile a new kernel. Reboot. Same ps deal. So I cvsup to -stable, make buildworld, make installworld and for make depend/make/install a new kernel. Reboot. Same problem with ps. From here I really have no idea where to go. Anyone have any ideas what might be wrong? Or at least what I can do to get more info? Thanks. :/ sigh --- Jesse http://www.lumiere.net/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
