If you actually bricked your root account: boot single user and chsh to /bin/sh or /bin/csh. I always keep /bin/sh as my root shell and do if [ -x /usr/pkg/bin/tcsh ]; then exec /usr/pkg/bin/tcsh fi in /root/.profile. I know why, and now you do too... On Thu, Jul 16, 2020 at 10:16 PM

I finally bricked my NetBSD system

2020-07-16 Thread Bob Bernstein
There's a long back-story to this event, but it's not important. Suffice to say that I removed all the packages from my system, including the shell I like at /usr/pkg/bin/tcsh, and now all my attempts to login are rejected because the shell cannot be found. Is there a work-around? Thank
