The 'touch: not found' I see now is related to the just-now-noticed fact that my buildworld had failed for some reason. Subsequent attempts to run buildworld are failing as well, at random places. /var/log/messages indicates processes involved in the build are dumping core. ===> gnu/usr.bin/groff/font/devutf8 /usr/obj/usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/groff/font/devutf8 created for /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/groff/font/devutf8 *** Signal 10 Memory issues? I upgraded the motherboard and RAM on this system. The old one had 384 MB, the new one has 512 MB. In my old kernel (still running at the moment), I had MAXMEM set based on the 384 figure. I'm occasionally seeing memory paging related errors and I'm guessing it's because of the bad value, hence my desire to upgrade the OS with no MAXMEM setting this time. Unfortunately I am apparently unable to do something so memory-intensive as building world with things being unstable, and my old RAM was bad and is long gone, so I'm not sure what to do, short of installing from scratch :/ -Mike
