Yup, did it twice to make sure. Unfortunately, I will have to wait until Friday to do another cvsup, to see if this is fixed. Is there any other analysis tool to see what is happening when I run it? (Other than truss which outputs nothing at all) My procedure has been: cvsup stable-supfile make clean make buildworld make buildkernel KERNEL=MACHINE_NAME make installkernel KERNEL=MACHINE_NAME reboot boot -s mount /; mount /usr; mount /var; mount /tmp make installworld mergemaster reboot This has worked countless times for me. I have checked, /proc is mounted, and a single CPU machine that I cvsuped at the same time has a top that is working. Thank you for your time.
