You can do a pkg_delete -a. This will delete all the packages.
After that pkgdb -fF This will rebuild the package database. However I dont think this is necessary. then reinstall everything as required. Thanks and Best Regards Subhro On 5/16/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I also can't re-install the Base OS remotely... Yes, I can make world to upgrade it (which has already been done), but not reinstall it in the sense of format / repartition / etc... -- Chris _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
