I've then booted with the 3.4R cdrom and do post-install config of the network interface (the hostname line is missing the 2nd quote mark), but that doesn't fix the rc.conf pb. What's a quick way to get my system back? tia, Len To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
