I use the following partition scheme: / - on USB /var, /usr, /tmp, /home - on internal HDD using ZFS. Last night after a power failure the system failed to boot with the following error: ... can't find /boot/loader.4th. Entered BIOS and changed the first boot drive to be the second USB from raid. The system boots but it stops here: "Trying to mount root from ufs:/dev/mirror/gm0s1a Loading configuration file /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /lib/libutil.so.7: object is not dynamically linked init: can't exec getty '/usr/libexec' getty for port /dev/ttyv7: No such file or directory" ttyv[n] in fact where 'n' takes values from 0 - 7. Booted into single user mode, fsck-ed the root partition and tried to mount all the UFS partitions (/var, /usr) from the USB drive but the mount command fails with the "/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: /lib/libutil.so.7: object is not dynamically linked" error. Is there anything i can do next besides reinstallation? thank you very much and a great day, v
