I then used freebsd-update to update the system. Now when I boot, the system stops when attempting to mount the fdesc device required by Bash: ... Starting file system checks: Mounting local file systems:mount: fdesc: Operation not supported by device . Mounting /etc/fstab filesystems failed, startup aborted ERROR: ABORTING BOOT (sending SIGTERM to parent)! May 24 22:44:09 init: /bin/sh on /etc/rc terminated abnormally, going to single user mode Enter full path of shell or RETURN for /bin/sh: If I press , comment out the "fdesc..." line in /etc/fstab, and enter 'exit', the system continues booting to the login prompt. When I log in: 1. The suggested 'mount -t fdescfs fdesc /dev/fd' command works. 2. If I uncomment the "fdesc..." line in /etc/fstab and run 'mount /dev/fd', it works. Any comments or suggestions? TIA, David
