I did not following the upgrade instructions to the letter and 'blew up' my FreeBSD laptop. Having made a recent backup of all of my important files, I decided that performing a reinstall would be easier than repairing my system. I downloaded the r318945 snapshot and performed a clean install on a Compaq Presario F500 laptop. After the first boot, I tried to install the pkg system. The first fault said that the libarchive.so.6 was missing. I symlinked it to the installed libarchive.so.7 and installed the necessary files for pkg. I tried a pkg install of bash and the files installed in /usr/local/bin had "REAL" strange permissions and dates. The dates were all December 1969 and before the Unix epoch date of January 1970. Something is wrong with INO64 on a recent snapshot!
