It's path is /rescue/sh. Possibly ld-elf.so.1 is missing in /libexec. I would try to mount the disc2.iso and copy it from there. In worst case I would copy /bin, /lib, /libexec, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /usr/lib, /usr/libexec (eventually /usr/libdata and /boot) from the live-filesystem-cd over to your system. Before you start to copy the files over, run the command '/rescue/chflags -R noschg *' on each of the paths in question to remove all system immutable flags). After your have fixed your system, re-cvsup sources and do a rebuild and reinstall of world and kernel. - -- Christian Hiris <4711@chello.at> | OpenPGP KeyID 0x3BCA53BE OpenPGP-Key at hkp://wwwkeys.eu.pgp.net and http://pgp.mit.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBy/1J09WjGjvKU74RAl4VAJwKM4kuVXFVQDdH3dNc6m+JdB1SCgCcCkxe aAtJdPgj3Azu/LC1qGG05N0= =dwiM -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
