First I am running 7.0-Stable and just cvsup'd today. Then I built the system, new kernel, and installed them. Second I am using the GENERIC KERNEL. Sysctl.conf is empty. I will put my /etc/rc.conf at the end. I tried to do a very careful job of merging /usr/src/etc with /etc. I didn't touch any files that I or the computer configured. But I am getting these errors upon bootup: 1. eval: /etc/rc.d/cleanvar: Permission Denied 2. syslogd: bind: Can't assign requested address. (repeated twice) 3. syslogd: child pid 134 exited with return code 1 4. /etc/rc: Warning: Dump device does not exist. Savecore will not run. (this always worked before) 5. /etc/rc.d/securelevel: /etc/rc.d/sysctl: Permission denied. 6. My computer says "Amnesiac" yet the host name is clearly in rc.conf 7. My WiFi no longer starts up by myself. I have to do it all manually using ifconfig and dhclient. Any help would be appreciated. I'm kind of lost as some of it makes no sense to me, esp #6 and 7. Has the default rc.conf format changed???

You can use mergemaster for that. Please use it, as I'm willing to bet there's a portion of your rc framework which is broken in some way. -- | Jeremy Chadwick jdc at parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
