The last command looks wrong. The restore program requires
the dump file to be provided via -f, so

Hi,
I can't make my SD card reader work. It is from a 4 years old Compaq
PC. It works fine in Linux however. I'm using 9.0 release with stock
kernel. If I boot the system and plug the SD card in, the green led
doesn't even switch on and there is only a /dev/da0 that I can not
mount. If I boot the
Just curious; what's the purpose of /tmp/fam-root, and what is written there?
Is it simply where the os writes stuff which is sensitive,
and putting it in a rwx-- directory avoids potential security issues
regarding file access?
or is there more to it than that?
Assuming one makes a mirror of a file system for backup purposes,
then renames the mirror and makes another one,
then attempts to remove the original using "rm -rf",
the rm will fail if any of the files have the schg or sunlnk bits set.
Is there an easy way around this problem other than traversin

Is that correct?
If so, why does:

Hi Guys,
Yesterday I issued the following command which I regretted: portupgrade -CPy,
and this little tool installed perl 5.12 while perl 5.10 was already on the
system. Since then everything is messed up.
Now I deleted perl 5.10 and reinstalled perl 5.10 and everything which depends
