Hi everybody!
2 days ago I started playing with installing FreeBsd, and tonight
I already passed the step of installing binary dist. Only one thing was left,
I was so close to the finish, I even thought that I am going to go to the bed
early today, but...
When I finished with extract of the binaries, run the configure
( on the questions about domain name I put something unimaginable), and
mv /.profile /.profile.install, and tried to
ln /root/.profile /.profile , I discovered that system dosn't have the ln.
I didn't understand why and how, but I just
cp /root/.profile /.profile and .... typed reboot.
The system came up with a lot of complains.
swapon : not found
starting network
hostname : not found
starting system loggersyslogd : not found
kvm_mkdb : not found
dev_mkdb : not found
preserving editor files
/etc/rc : /usr/libexec/elvispreserve : not found
clearing /tmp
find : not found
standard daemons: update crond/etc/rc : /usr/libexec/crond : not found
starting network daemons : routedrouted : not found
print erlpd : not found
sendmailsendmail : not found
inetdinetd : not found
name : not found
sed : not found
starting local daemons:
date : not found
And then endless
init FATAL error: console : Interrupted system call
What could it be? I am very new to UNIX.
I would appreciate very much , if somebody will help me - I don't have
any clues.
Thanks,
Boris Pitel
