This caused Hellacious problems on the file system; it made me run fsck manually, which proceeded to find bunches of BAD/DUPLICATE entries, prompting me if it should fix each one (I said yes). I now have exactly 100 entries in the /lost+found directory, some of which are apparently fairly important. Ex: FreeBSD/i386 (abc.def.xyz) (ttyv0) Login: root /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object "libcrypt.so.2" not found FreeBSD/i386 (abc.def.com) (ttyv0) Login: My question is, if I boot from a floppy and mount the hard drive somewhere, is there a way to find out where all these entries in /lost+found (they're fairly contiguous (e.g. #206393 to #206482 and a scattering of others)) really belong? Specifics: ASUS P2B Intel P200 with Pentium F00F Adaptec AHA-2940U2W Seagate ST32550N with one swap, one all-encompassing root partition FreeBSD 3.0-RELEASE from the WC November 1998 CD This is basically a "play" system ('til 3.0 goes stable) so I'll end up reinstalling everything if I can't figure this out.
