Now I am getting this error message:: init: login get class: unknown class default init: login get class: no default/fallback class `default` init: can't execute getty `/usr/libexec/getty` for port /dev/ttyv1* no such file or directory * this part changed each time it scrolls throught with a different port number I figure this is a two part problem and would appreciate any help that I recieve. I have checked the questions archive for the login error and have not found a match for my error but there are several for the unknown class root error, and as far as the getty error the only fix I have found is the ./MAKEDEV vty ? where the ? matches the number of devices listed in my /etc/dev file. I guess what I really need to know is the proper order to do the fixes and what the right fixes are and what exactly did I do wrong to get to this error stage so I won't do it again. The following is the steps I followed to do after I completed the cvsup, they came from an email on the newbies list. make buildworld make buildkernel make installkernel KERNEL=MYKERNEL shutdown -k make installworld mergemaster reboot Tim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
