My bad-memory problems were kindly fixed by a gentleman from the Seattle BSD users group, but there were scores of files missing (vanished) all over. Several missing binaries caused the /usr/src/Makefile to go haywire, so I had to build/install the kernel the old way: # cd /usr/src/sys/i386/conf # [[ perform necessary kernel configuration on ``./KERNCONF'' ]] # config KERNCONF # cd ../../compile/KERNCONF # make depend # make # make install After going single-user, and mergmastering stuff, make installworld was broke, so I had to install several src trees by hand. At last make installworld worked and I came back up. There are probably lots of ports gone-south, but this is almost a non issue after the past few weeks. -g -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
