I was not able to mount anything so I could not copy from the floppy. * '... why not start with 3.3 ...' I just got the hang of cvsup so I wanted to try upgrade and make world * '... use picobsd ...' I'm not familiar enough but after reading it sound really interesting. Specially since a have a small 486 with 8 meg, network cards but no drive. sounds like it could be a good router Finally, I solve my problem this way, probably not recommended but it worked. I started with my 2.2.6 install disk. Created the mount points and rebooted. This allowed to get access to /usr so I could get ee to work and copy etc to a floppy. (ok I should do backups more often) but for me backup only work when I don't need them. Once I got my /etc. I restart the install of 2.2.6 and then copied the files back. Ho yea, made the mistake and copied passwd, then I could no longer logon. So did it over and now it works. I would like to start with 3.3 but I could not find the install disk for that. So I'll try again the upgrade. But I'm better prepared this time. Thanks Gramond __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
