I cvsup'ed and rebuild my -CURRENT last night and didn't see any errors this morning. So, if your problem persists, you should mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] and ask them. A missing subdirectory shouldn't be a big thing to repair.

I would strongly advise you not to attempt doing something like this remotely over ssh(1). Chances are what will happen is the machine will crash and end up in an unbootable state. In order to upgrade a system you really have to have access to the system console. That means either you have to be right in front of the machine, or you have to use a serial console either with a console server or by connecting it via a null-modem cable to a nearby machine. > Can this be done?

Well, the choice at the moment would seem to be 4.9-RELEASE, 4.10-RC1 or 5.2.1-RELEASE. If you can wait for a few weeks, 4.10-RELEASE will be available. That is what I'd go for first on a machine being used as a serious server. However, 5.2.1-RELEASE while still a developer preview is getting well on the way towards stability. You might need it if you have hardware unsupported under 4.x. > (Where to find sysinstall on it?) Under 4.x it's in /stand/sysinstall Under 5.x it's in /usr/sbin/sysinstall Cheers, Matthew -- Dr Matthew J Seaman MA, D.Phil. 26 The Paddocks Savill Way PGP: http://www.infracaninophile.co.uk/pgpkey Marlow Tel: +44 1628 476614 Bucks., SL7 1TH UK pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature
How to repair a system?
Once again,... I have a system on which make buildworld won't work. I am thinking of doing a binary install on the system, but my only access to the system is ssh. So I am thinking of copying an image over and running sysinstall to install a new set of binaries and libraries. Can this be done? Is it the way to go? What image should I use?
