Are >you sure that's all you did since the last time you rebooted? Well, in all honesty, I don't know if it was portupgrade that *caused* it. That was only the last thing I ran. I was gone for all of a minute maybe and portupgrade was the only program I had running. Running portupgrade is definitely not the only thing I did since last rebooting. The machine was up for at least a few days. Anyhow, if anyone can help me troubleshoot this and get it booted I'd be grateful. If I have to spend the evening on my Windows game box when I get home, I might just jump off a building ;-D Cheers, Zach Thompson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
