Watch (tail -F) /var/log/messages, after login, if you get something strange there (like unexpected softupdate inconsistency, run fsck manually or fsck drops core) or if on the next reboot it happens again boot is single user and run fsck. > > -- > Rishi Chopra > http://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~rchopra > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" -- IOnut Unregistered ;) FreeBSD user
