Hello While upgrading from 2.2.8-stable to 3.1-stable (make aout-to-elf-build and make aout-to-elf-install), all went well until I rebooted. It was apparent that I should have used the GENERIC kernel as opposed to my custom made kernel back in 2.2.8-stable. While booting up, here are the last few lines: /dev/rw1s2:FILESYSTEM CLEAN; Skipping checks /dev/rw1s2: clean, 642327 free (3311 frags, 79877 blocks, 0.3% fragmentation) mount: exec mount_ failed, startup aborted I was able to drop to a shell, but my /usr was on a partition not mounted so I couldn't build a 3.1 kernel. So I tried to mount /usr manually #mount -t ufs /dev/usr_partition /usr pid 25 (mount), uid 0 : exited on signal 12 mount: /usr : Bad system call I tried to boot in single user mode, but I still couldn't use mount. I couldn't use mount in the sense that I couldn't mount anything...I kept getting signal 12 One alternative suggested was to use a fixit.flp, but I still couldn't mount anything even in a Fixit shell. (I got the fixit shell from ftp.freebsd.org, used fdimage to write the image). Fixit# mount -t ufs /dev/root_device /mnt /* /mnt is empty, /mnt2 was where fd0 was mounted) */ /: write failed, filesystem is full mount: /mnt: Bad system call Fixit# this is part of the df output: root_device 95% /dev/fd0 103% I hope I have provided enough information for someone to give me some hints. Thanks. -Dan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
