Hi there

I had free bsd 4.4 and was trying to update to 4.6. So, i'm following the
instructions of my freebsd book, and got past the 'make kernel
KERNCONF=MYKERN' command. Then rebooted the machine and then typed 'cd
/usr/src'. Then i tried to execute 'make installworld', but it couldn't
execute and said something was wrong with smmsp and to look in the UPDATING
file.

So i looked into the UPDATING file and looked for smmsp. It gave some
suggestions indicating that i have to execute 'megemaster -p'. So that's
what i did and i didn't really understand what was going on, but i tried to
merge in differences from different files.

I then rebooted, and now i can't log into my machine under root or any other
user.

Can someone please help. I'm totally lost here.

Thanks

desmond
