This is definitely not a FreeBSD-related problem, I have been having problems accessing a specific USB drive from within VMs, both FreeBSD and OpenSolaris, and that one appears to have been the problem here as well. So, the current status is: The cleanly installed 8.0-RC2 works, the updated one not. So this is either my bad or the freebsd-update did something wrong. I'll try to find out what and keep you posted. thx for all the suggestions, M. -- Matthias Rampke +49 179 - 166 09 18 http://www.matthias-rampke.de/Received on Sun Nov 01 2009 - 10:44:35 UTC
