I'm tracking 4.2-stable on a Dell 450MHz PC.

I've never been able to get X to start up on this machine, getting a
KDENABIO error (or something close to it - I'm typing from memory).

Anyway, I tried to make/install XFree86-4 from ports last night. Now X
still doesn't work and also my installworlds have started breaking.

make installworld (in single user mode) breaks when trying to install a new
version of /usr/lib/libscrypt.so.2 from /usr/src. I've tried deleting,
moving etc but can't. This file will not even yield to chflags. Everything
I try gets "operation not permitted." Same logged in as root or in
single-user.

Right now the only option I see to get things back on track with this
server is to start over from the 4.2 cd and forget about X.

Actually, while I'm irritated about it, I might as well point out that on
every machine I've installed FreeBSD on, I've never had an easy time
getting X to work. But I really like cvsup and the ports, so I continue
with it.

Any advice out there?

Albert
