I tried rebooting with the live FreeBSD cd and mounting what was on my drive bot no partition was readable... I suppose I could have tried harder but since I am not (yet :-) ) a BSD guru I decided to wipe and reinstall, which wasn't really a big deal since this was a fresh, new, 24hour old install... so, now that my bsd is up and running, I am not going to try to copy this file over the old one ! any suggestions on what to do ? I am running all this on an old spare box with 500Mb of disk, so I don't know if I can even get all the most recent sources build all thanks for the help bruno To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
