I copy off the etc files and start over, newfs-ing system partitions. I've no backup of /etc on this system so although it's now booting NetBSD-6_BETA2 and I can see that not much data has gone missing most of the contents of /etc were somehow deleted. As I mentioned NetBSD-6 was giving problems, one of which is I can't use tne either of the distribution cd's. I've manage to get back to being able to boot NetBSD-6 by fist booting from a NetBSD-5 cd and copying from an incomplete archive of /etc then swapping to a netbsd-kernel. My backup mirror and another system have both had hdd failures. cheers David -- Hisashi T Fujinaka - ht...@twofifty.com BSEE(6/86) + BSChem(3/95) + BAEnglish(8/95) + MSCS(8/03) + $2.50 = latte

re: Problem with chown

Anyone else seen this? you've got netbsd-5 and netbsd-6 files installed together. since /sbin/init is the newer one, i'm going to assume you installed netbsd-6 and then netbsd-6, and that's how it got into this state. _libc_init is a symbol needed by newer programs in netbsd, and provided by the libc.so in netbsd-6. .mrg.
