I just made a few configurative screwups. Ones which are stopping the system from booting. (lol, i stuffed up an fstab entry) Once the boot process attempts to drop into single-user mode, it outputs the following error every thirty seconds before being arrested by a Ctrl-Alt-Delete forcing the machine down :=20 bsdbox init: can't get /dev/console for controlling terminal: Operation not permitted ... Is there a fixit image for ppc? If not, why not? If yes, where? Also if not, what can be recommended to get me a working fbsd live system for just long enough to fix the REAL one? Thanks in advance,=20 -- Horst. --=-O6xs90B6+PVQX6lEkf0g Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkkVdjYACgkQRtTtv0BbTe5YuACeOxnGBTeZOuOy5ZmE5M9Y4ujx pIoAnjz4F1XUWAYoG6qbLIDtmA+zsLkz =CszL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-O6xs90B6+PVQX6lEkf0g--
