I always have it on at home, but my brother entered the room I have the machine in and shut the power off, no questions asked. Of course he thought I mistakenly left it on, but the thing is that when I came home the machine didn't stop from reboting every 15 seconds and it displayed a message like the following: / not properly dismount init not found panic: init not found ...rebooting in 15 minutes or press a key Now I tried to use /stand/sysinstall to re-make the partitions ( when I entered the label options, all my original partitions had the right hd space but didn't have the mounting name, instead there was an * character) without any success, and furthermore, after that I cannot get the boot manager to give me the choice of starting up the freebsd booting, and now it only boots from my DOS partition. Please can anyone give me a hand on this? Thank you before hand. Simon. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
