What I know, however, is that my daily script is also bugged: Local system status: uptime: /dev//umount: /cdrom: not currently mounted umount: No such file or directory uptime: /dev//: /proc: not currently mounted umount: /var:: No such file or directory uptime: /dev// not currently mounted umount: /usr: not cur: No such file or directory uptime: /dev//rently mounted umount: /home: not currently : No such file or directory uptime: /dev//mounted umount: /dos: not currently mounted : No such file or directory 2:00AM up 6:08, 1 user, load averages: 1.28, 1.80, 1.74 What is _that_??? I just cvsupped the latest sources. I'm going to do a make world when my HD space will permit it, and I'll rebuild my kernel. We'll see then. Hoping that all this nightmare will end soon.
