11.0 has not been released. You are much more likely to get a useful
response from current at .

Unknown user name "haldaemon"            in message bus configuration
file

Failed to start message bus:

Could not get VID and GID for username "messagebus"

/etc/rc:Warning:failed to start dbus

On the same computer I have a disk with 10.3_STABLE with the

This is very likely due to failure to start dbus

Note: I have tried to recover the mail format above. Whatever mail tool you
used totally garbled things by removing line breaks.

First, how did 11.0Beta-1 get installed? How sis your ports (X11, dbus,
pulseaudio, etc.) get installed? When moving from one major release to
another (10 to 11), you need to reinstall all ports/packages. The
installation process is what creates these"users".

It looks like you are just trying to run the things in /usr/local from your
10.3 system. This simply will not work.
