I'm sure these are not the commands you used. There is no 'installworld' target in /usr/ports. It is _wrong_ to run `make installworld' _before_ you have completed the normal sequence of build & install. There is no `install kernel' target in /usr/ports. [snip stuff about mergemaster, mixed with etc/master.passwd problems] If you ask me, I think you have probably screwed things up a bit :( Restore from a backup and start over, this time following the instructions of `/usr/src/UPDATING', *VERY* carefully. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
