You can't just wipe the 4.3 install, use your 4.2 CD to do a Fresh install, get the network working (I'm assuming the network isn't working because of the IRQ issue), and dump your backups onto the fresh 4.2 install? It's not a pretty solution, but it should get you working again. -- \ |_ _|__ __|_ \ __| Jason Andresen jandrese@mitre.org |\/ | | | / _| Network and Distributed Systems Engineer _| _|___| _| _|_\___| Office: 703-883-7755 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
