For some reason (sorry I didn't record the error messages) I got into some weird menu loop in sysinstall when I tried to upgrade. So in the end, I just mounted the installation disk, found a directory RELEASE-6.2/base in which there was an install.sh that looked like it would do the right thing. It did the right thing. The only problem was that I forgot to restore my old /etc/passwd before rebooting. As a consequence I couldn't ssh in, and so I had to lug an old monitor across the room and clear desk space for it, so that I could log on to the console.

How to reinstall gcc
I seem to have broken gcc on my 6.2-RELEASE p2 system. I apparently did this by adding CPUTYPE?=c3 to /etc/make.conf and then a make buildworld and make install world. Everything seems to be working fine (though I haven't tested throughly), but now gcc is definitely broken. Most compile attempts end with something like internal compiler error: Illegal instruction: 4 I have been able to successfully compile hello.c, but a buildworld fails as described above as does the things I've tested in ports (pcre, curl, ispell). My question is without a functioning gcc, how do a install a functioning gcc? -j -- Jeffrey Goldberghttp://www.goldmark.org/jeff/ ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
