Since this problem, I reinstalled the system. Well, I didn't reinstalled. I just upgraded with the same version of that one already installed. Everytime I try to install, FreeBSD 2.2.6 refuses me at the partition step as it sees more than 1 DOS partitions. > (1) C: wcd0s1 (Windows 95 bootable / WinNT bootable) > 2.2 GB > (2) wcd0s2 (FreeBSD native): in here, I have 800 MB > (3) D: wcd0s3 (Only data) > 1.2 GB But, the "Upgrade" option worked. It just recopied everything I had before --> waste of time.... :( Finally, I made it installed and rebooted. Oops, it doesn't accept me as a root. Did it really re-established the passwd file or not ? I don't know. One thing is clear that I cannot enter as a root. For this, I couldn't use "single user" or "default root" option, because each time I reboot one of those, the root_device becomes read only and I cannot modify my password. Oh, god... I again upgraded the system, without forget to change the root password in TTYV4 using passwd. Now, it works again, but, I really don't know what happened. As you say Doug, it can be a problem of X. but, how can we explain that the system worked before and got stuck without any modification ? Thanks again for your answer, and see you ;) ------------------------------------- Kevin Kyeong-il CHOI ~'/ (o\) ^ \___/o Doctoral Research Engineer Service DEE/IR/TL/ES Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales 18 Avenue Edouard-Belin 31401 Toulouse cedex 4 France (T) +33-561 28 15 31 (F) +33-561 28 29 13 (Email) kevin.choi@cnes.fr ------------------------------------- ------=_NextPart_000_0002_01BDCA96.DC24DB30 Content-Type: application/octet-stream; name="Kevin Kyeong-il CHOI.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Kevin Kyeong-il CHOI.vcf" BEGIN:VCARD VERSION:2.1 N:CHOI;Kevin;Kyeong-il;; FN:Kevin Kyeong-il CHOI ORG:CNES; TITLE:Dr TEL;WORK;VOICE:(05) 61 28 15 31 TEL;HOME;VOICE:(05) 62 17 01 99 EMAIL;PREF;INTERNET:kevin.choi@cnes.fr REV:19980710T091856Z END:VCARD ------=_NextPart_000_0002_01BDCA96.DC24DB30-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
