Error aborting boot (sending sigterm to parent)

/bin/sh on /etc/rc terminated abnormally, goin to sigle user mode
Entre full pathname of shell or return for /bin/sh: shell
init can t exec shell for single user no such file or director

Have you tried hitting return, as it suggests, to run the Bourne shell? There is no executable named shell, as far as I know, and you did not use the full pathname.

Hi darken,

Another thought, do you have any other shells installed on this machine? Also, what precipitated this error? Is this a new install? Has any hardware been changed recently?

Some of these answers will help us with the troubleshooting.

Hi marcolino,

The problem appeared after I installed kde

[marcolino]

Well, it appears that the problem lies with either /bin/sh or /etc/rc. Have you tried hitting return at the Enter full pathname of shell or return for /bin/sh: prompt? If that gives you an error still, try typing /bin/csh instead. Did you happen to edit /etc/rc?

Hi darken,

If that is your entire /etc/rc file, then something happened to it. If it is only a portion of it, then where in the file is it? Also, what version of OpenBSD are you running? And, since you were able to view the file, does this mean that you were able to boot into single-user mode?

That fragment doesn't look like anything in /etc/rc to me, even without the typos.

That fragment doesn't look like anything in /etc/rc to me, even without the typos.Agreed, jggimi. That's part of the reason I asked about what version he is running. I have a feeling there is more happening than darken is reporting. Of course, there's little information so far. A quick recap of what might be helpful:

Operating system version
Success/failure with booting into single-user mode
Any recent alteration of /etc/rc
From what file did that snippet come
How did darken install KDE? Packages? Ports? Source compile?
I'm sure more questions will come to me, but this will do for now.
