Thanks, Sunil for the steps, but I have tried that already.
When I get to the # prompt in single user mode, I cannot use
the passwd command. I get the error;;
passwd: error opening database: /etc/pwd.db: Permission denied
passwd: /etc/master.passwd: unchanged
and permissions are as follows;

Hmm.. Pretty long but only the last few screens are important. Problem's
kinda weird,
really. This is a *LAST DITCH EFFORT*, but try this. It may work. (Note:
this assumes
you've got system sources around).
OK boot -s
# mkdir /var/oldpwd
# mv /etc/master.passwd /etc/passwd /etc/group

All of a sudden, I can't login, even as root. I tried to set the
password of root to nil (because I happened to be logged in as root at
the time) and that didn't work either.
Then, thinking that the machine was acting up, I rebooted. Now I am in

Is there a way to overwrite the /dev entries and mount points on the
damaged
drive, reinstall system files, but still preserve my user data?
I guess you could boot a fixit disk, mount your hard drive on it, and
then rebuild...
Except I couldn't mount. There was too many errors on the
I have two systems. One system is version 4.0 and the other 4.8S.
I took the drive out of the 4.8 machine and mounted the slices with
the 4.0 machine. After the initial mount, which worked, I got
errors on subsequent mount attempts.
It actually puts the 4.0 machine into panic whenever I try now.

I just tried re-installing my squid files for the first time in a year.
My machine slowed down to a crawl. Even re-starting the machine doesn't
help. Even running a simple ascii screen is slow.
How might I track down what is eating up the resources of my machine?
I've shut down squid with no
