I wanted to update to 4.7-STABLE, so I ran make buildworld. After realizing that I was not in fact building 4.7, the built stopped and I removed /usr/obj. Except while in /usr/obj I ran `rm -rf /etc` instead of 'rm -rf etc'. This ran for less than a second before I stopped it though. However, after this, /usr/bin is gone. So, I'm thinking I should get the 4.7 ISO and re-install from a CD. Will this save most of my system (specifically the installed ports and /home directories)? Are there any better ideas? Thanks, and yes, I know, I'm really dumb. Adam To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
