Hi, Recently I upgraded my FreeBSD 6.2 system to 7.0-BETA2 using cvsup and the following howto, except that what I first did was a `pkg_delete -a': http://d-kriptik.com/blog/2007/10/30/updating-to-freebsd-7-beta-1-from-freebsd-62/ Everything went OK, except that, after the second reboot, now I can see: - no system messages (what I usually see in dmesg), - no rc messages (about daemons startup), - no general syslog messages (like using command 'su'). It's like I've lost the default tty or something, because after the boot process finishes, I can still log in, KDM starts up fine, etc. How can I fix this?

Also, I'm not sure whether I should enable SMP for my CPU, which is Intel(R) Celeron(R) D 3.20GHz. Thanks in advance. -- AngryWolf angrywolf@flashmail.com

But i have no such problems that you are facing now. So i'll give you some more straight question. Did you update /etc with mergemaster(8) after `make installworld'? -- "I cannot disappoint them for the sake of your friend." -- Signor Roberto, "Chapter 14", page 208
