Hi.
I added a process with high priority (nice -20) to be loaded each time system boots. It is located in /usr/local/etc/rc.d.
Apparently, the process consume too much cpu time which make it imposible to log in.
I cant do anything from the boot loader, because i cant cd to /usr to remove the script.
Any suggestion?.
The system is on a virtual machine.
thanks.

Greetings!
Have you tried this?
1. When the countdown starts, right after the BTX loader has finished, press any key other than <enter> for the prompt.
2. Type boot -s to boot into single user mode.
3. When asked for a shell for root, hit <enter> (this will give you the sh shell). Alternatively, type /bi n/csh, then <enter>. This will give you the C shell, and tab completion. Essential if you are to do much of anything, IMO.
4. fsck -y
5. mount /usr
6. Do whatever it is you want to do in /usr, and reboot.
You may have to provide the absolute paths for fsck and mount, I don't recall at the moment if PATH is set in single user mode.
Hope this helps! -Henrik W Lund _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
