I'm currently administering a machine about 1500mi from me with nobody local to the machine to assist me. Anyways, my only access to this machine is via SSH, no remote serial console or anything. When I try to do a "make installworld" I end up with install: rename: /lib/INS@aTxk to /lib/libcrypt.so.3: Operation not permitted very shortly thereafter. I cannot boot into single user mode because I am far, far away from the machine. What can I do to finish the installworld? Thanks Nick ________________________________________________ VHCS Webmail

Try to # chflags noschg /lib/libcrypt.so if your securelevel allows it. Afterward try installworld one more time. Best regards, Denis Barov.
Give us more details.. I assume that 'make buildworld' and 'make buildkernel' and 'make installkernel' have finished successfuly. See if you /tmp isn`t mounted nosuid and noexec On 3/2/06, Nick <nick@tehmatix.net> wrote:> > > I'm currently administering a machine about 1500mi from me with nobody > local to the machine to assist me.
