You may try this ugly emergency fix and see if SML starts at least in a temporary jail. In your home, or wherever you have some space available... (400MB should be fine) Fetch some i386 binaries for 9.1 (or your favorite release) mkdir 9.1-i386 fetch -o - ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/9.1-RELEASE/base.txz | tar -x -f - -C 9.1-i386 Copy the resolver configuration: cp /etc/resolv.conf 9.1-i386/etc Ensure that /usr/local is populated, just in case: mtree -deU -f /usr/ports/Templates/BSD.local.dist -p 9.1-i386/usr/local Add this to your /etc/jail.conf (replace my home directory with your own path) sml { name=sml; host.hostname=sml; ip4=inherit; persist; path=/home/olgeni/9.1-i386; } Create a jail for sml: jail -c sml Enter the jail: jexec sml sh Install SML from tbz package: pkg_add -r ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-9.0-release/lang/smlnj-110.0.7_3.tbz Run SML and hopefully get a prompt: sml Standard ML of New Jersey, Version 110.0.7, September 28, 2000 [CM; autoload enabled] - I got one, so it seems to work :) If SML starts this way then there is hope and you just need to clean up the configuration a bit. -- jimmy
