If an admin cannot handle /bin/sh long enough to get /usr mounted, they have no business being an admin. And Yes, I am a 100% bash user (I'm also the guy that brought you tcsh in the base system) Bash is my shell, and toor's shell. When I want bash single user, I answer the question of which shell with "/usr/local/bin/bash" as my / and /usr are the same (there! problem solved for the guy that started this thread). On machines I deal with that have seperate / and /usr, I take the default of /bin/sh and then do the: mount /usr /usr/local/bin/bash dance. Now that isn't such a hard dance now is it? I live it, it can be done. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
