Few hours ago I download the 5.2.1-release source, buildworld, buildkernel, installkernel, but after a few minuts of installworld my system froze. Now when I try to boot I get: Mounting root from ufs: /dev/ad0s1a WARNING: / was not properly dismounted exec /sbin/init: error 8 /sbin/sysctl: 1: Syntax error: ";" unexpected /sbin/sysctl: 1: Syntax error: ";" unexpected Thu Feb 26 16:24:26 CET 2004 Feb 26 16:24:26 init: can't exec getty '/usr/libexec/getty' for port /dev/ttyv0: No such file or directory ....and so on So the question is: Now what? I can boot in single user mode and get a shell, but very few programs work and I can't mount anything? br db
