Hi, Figured this might be a bit more than -questions worthy...
I was following some instructions online about upgrading 7 to 8... And... Well... Something went horribly wrong during "make installworld". I lost my ssh session (Mistake 1 - Console dummy!) and now in multiuser I can't log in. I logged in single user and commands are iffy about working. "ls" is fine, but "ls -l" coredumps. I tried to redo the installworld, but it seems to get somewhere in libc man pages and then quits. Could be that "ln" is screwed.
Any thoughts on how to recover? I did an rsync of the system elsewhere beforehand, so if it works I probably could just get it all back that way. I was HOPING to go forward to 8. Is there some way I can do the equiv of a "make installworld&&make installkernel" off some media so I don't overwrite config, password, group, etc.
Thanks, Tuc _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
