Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Something went badly wrong during a power failure today, and when I boot up now, I get a whole list of things that are not found, including things like compressnet, daytime, chargen, etc. I suspect a file or two have gotten destroyed because of the outage, but I have no idea what file(s) to acquire and replace. I am able to use the system because it eventually stops at an ftp> prompt, which I can shell escape from. Also- is there a way to get a log of the last bootup? Please reply via private e-mail, as I don't subscribe to the list.
