I really blew it... I did 'chmod -R 4755 /' Now I can't log in. I have tried doing upgrade and install and neither have worked. When I try to use a holographic shell it just says 'Error ( expected' and when I put an open parenthesis in front of my command it gives me a '>' and then when I enter commands on that line nothing happens all I can do is 'Ctl-C' out of it. What can I do to save my system or do I have to newfs? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. A.
