Hello all. I received a call from a friend that like me is also learning FreeBSD. He has version 4.2 and was working without problems. He decided to rester his machine doing the normal following command: shutdown -r now after checking memory and that stuff the machine is sending this messages: Mounting root from ufs /dev/ad0s1a reserved: not found without: not found conditions: not found above: not found disclaimer: not found copyright: not found in: not found distributions: not found AS: not found LIMITED: not found PARTICULAR: not found CONTRIBUTORS: not found EXEMPLARY: not found PROCUREMENT: not found /etc/rc 16: Syntax error: ")" unexpected Enter full pathname or shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: He bring his machine to my office and together we are trying to fix it but we do not have any idea why this happened and how to solve it. (sorry but we are newbies and I decided to ask the list). We can install again without problems but we really would like to learn how to fix this and avoid , if possible similar problems in the future. One think we notices when we did the command # ls -l rc* is that the date of the file rc is changed as weel as the file rc.conf. This machine was serving web pages only on a plain installation of Apache and it is running a couple of CGIs. We would like to have the machine working again and download some Apache log files in the machine before formatting . Any one can help us and tell us what to do?
