You could try doing an upgrade from the CD. /stand/sysinstall If you have a working system, you could try copying the files over from the working system to the broken system. If you built the system yourself (buildworld...) they may still be in the /usr/obj tree somewhere. _ Don't just search. Find.

You could try doing an upgrade from the CD. /stand/sysinstall Will this change any of the all ready installed ports and configurations setup on the machine ? Possibly, especially since you say that you had just upgraded with buildworld/installworld. If some port/config depended on the update then that would break. Sort of depends on how much you have upgraded from the CD. If you have a working system, you could try copying the files over from the working system to the broken system.

Yes i did do a buildworld and installworld day before this accident happend, however the /usr/bin/make dosent exist only the /usr/src/usr.bin/make You need to look under /usr/obj (as I said ;o) ls /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/make/make /usr/obj/usr/src/usr.bin/make/make _ Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
