Oh wait.. You didn't say anything helpful n/m -Jason -----Original Message----- From: Scott M. Likens [mailto:slikens@bsdwebsolutions.com] Sent: Saturday, October 18, 2003 12:16 PM To: Jason Dictos; 'freebsd-current@freebsd.org' Okay, let's see here. First off you install FreeBSD 5.1, UFS2 possibly but I guess UFS1 since it booted 4.9 Some stupid reason you downgraded to 4.9, didn't run mergemaster, so all your /etc files are out of whack, and now you're bitching that you're trying to do buildworld again, and getting errors. Amazing. Truly Amazing Comments anyone? --On Friday, October 17, 2003 10:53 PM -0700 Jason Dictos wrote: > Hi Guys, here's the scenario: > > 1. Had FreeBSD 5.1 system running. > 2.
