Probably not, since you haven't provided enough information.

*sigh* Here are four free clues:

1. Use a subject line on  your message, like the one I've added. People
   are likely to ignore messages with no subject.
2. Keep line lengths under 80 characters. I've rewrapped the lines.
3. Only post messages once. You posted this message three times, with only
   minor differences between each.
4. When people give you good advice, act on it. Evren asked you to post
   the entire error message you received. You haven't done this.

There must have been something above the "*** error code 1" explaining
what caused the error. How about reading and/or posting that so people
might have a clue what's going wrong?

You'd do well to read Greg Lehey's guidelines for posting to
freebsd-questions, there is a link from http://www.lemis.com/
