After i rebooted with the old 5.1 kernel and did make buildkernel *with* COMPAT_FREEBSD4, i could reboot single user with 5.3 and run ls,mount, etc... just fine. What has COMPAT_FREEBSD4 has to do, since i *didnt* have it in my 5.1-RELEASE-p10, and no FreeBSD 4.x programs were run? Another point that maybe should be addressed in docs (UPDATING) is that when rebooting single user / is mounted ro, so mergemaster -p cannot write to /etc/master.passwd, groups. -- -Achilleus
