Date: Sat, 07 Oct 2000 17:10:50 -0400 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I have a bit of a problem, in trying to find files in order to finish this install, I'll try to use grep. Sometimes it just hangs. The command prompt does not return. The lights on the computer do not show any disk activity. What could be the problem?? Is there a way to get back the command prompt without hitting CRTL-ALT-DEL?? To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
