I have a rather bizarre problem. I have been trying to upgrade forever w/
endless problems, but may have found the cause of some of the problems.
Running O/S 6.0.
My system disk is displayed in df etc as /dev/ad0 with slice & partitions as
ad0s1a, ad0s1b, ad0s1e, .. , etc. It is similarly displ

Can it be performed after starting the server with

MAJOR SCREWUP
I was frustrated by a failure to create a ROOT password and decided to do a
clean reinstall
Did a "make deinstall" from the following ports
[i] /usr/ports/databases/mysql54-server
[ii] /usr/ports/databases/mysql54-client
[iii]/usr/ports/databases/mysql54-scripts
Did a
common problem. At a minimum a simple checklist would help. I have had
situations where I have looked at files/directories after an installation
and could not tell what it should be.
Thanks again!

I have a 6.0 installation without a /var slice. Instead I have a soft link
of /usr/var to a /var@ file. Now I am attempting an upgrade to 6.4 and
getting an error condition. I am using Disk 1 of the 6.4 distro >> Upgrade

I do not expect an exact or precise answer here, given all the subjective &
dependent parameters.
Just a rough ballpark approximation, what time frame should a restore occur
in?
param :-
an ~1Ghz system, running 6.x O/S, dumpfile ~ 30 Gb, UFS2 file systems w/
default blocksize, target directory
Thanks!
That might explain. Is there an alternate process you would recommend with
at least equal reliability.
BTW I should have mentioned that I was restoring from a disk file rather
than from a tape
Thanks again.

I seemed to have lost some critical dump files during a restore. The
directory in which they were backed up in seemed to vaporize. The data was
present as indicated by df -h but the directory was not listed.
fsck on the disk was ineffective

Shouldn't the telnet localhost generate a connection?
