If you can, consider upgrading that system to a version that receives support. However, FreeBSD is known to run for decades (if maintained properly, or _not_ touched at all). :-) > Now we have following problem in server PC it is not booting fully showing > error > Mounting /etc/fstab filesystems failed, startup aborted > /etc/rc:Warning:$true is not set properly -see rc.conf(5) What does "now" mean in this context? Did it happen suddenly out of nowhere, or did you change something on the server? If yes, what did you change? The error seems to indicate some problem with /etc/rc.conf content. Maybe this older discussion is helpful: https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2016-March/270788.html Check in /etc/rc.conf if you somewhere have a line like "true=<something>" in it... But that is a warning. Probably there's an error with bigger impact related to mounting, maybe an error in /etc/fstab? You could try to boot the system into single user mode first ("boot -s" at loader prompt), then run "fsck", and finally "mount -a". This should give you a good indication of what could be the problem. > attached picture 1 with booting error This mailing list does not support non-text attachments. Please upload the picture somewhere - or even better, especially for future reference, type the error message (and all other important information that might appear on the server) directly into the message. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
