Do you have any idea what might have caused its creation? The other difference between the two installation is that previously /compat was symlinked to /usr/compat, whereas on the new system, the contents of /compat is all on my root partition. I guess that this is probably not desirable and should be fixed. The previous installation was done entirely with sysinstall, including the partitioning, but this time I wanted to install straight into a gpt'd mirrored drive. I booted into mfsbsd, created partitions and mounted the structure under /mnt, then ran sysinstall (and chose /mnt as the install target). Perhaps I should have set up various symlinks whilst I was at it. Are there likely to be any other similar problems? Kind Regards, Chris
