then you have a big issue
how did you restored your backup ?
please return the output of
ll /sbin
should be something like this
# ll /sbin
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 28 déc 2018 /sbin -> usr/sbin
also
cat /etc/e-smith-release
Tonight I started over. With the 2 new drives in place and formatted to ext4 I went through the steps, turning on only 1 ethernet port, and then setting time, language, minimum install etc so there were no warnings. By doing the network 1st I was able to see it also allowed internet time servers to be found.
On reboot with CD removed I said no to having a backup to restore and configured the IP to 10.0.0.1, 255.255.255,0 Used only 1 port for the server, and had no problem remote logging in from another computer. I was able to download updates to latest, As well at the console I was able to check that it could find the internet, and I could access the text based server-manager. I find myself wondering if 4 GIGS of RAM is enough as on the previous install with my data restore I could not get proper video to see to type in the admin and password.
May I ask what the consensus is on a good amount of RAM where it would start to be excessive with little benefit . 4, 8, 16, 32 , 64 gigs?
I then removed the new disks and installed the old 9.2 SME disks and disabled the 2 network cards joining so only 1 is being utilized. As well I turned off Clam Antivirus and web mail so it will be configured more like the currently working SME 10. Then I left it saving to a USB drive via the Console on a ext3 formatted disk. Tomorrow being Rememberance day I will again attempt an install to 10 with the lowered resource settings. Then if it works, perhaps turn on the mail etc. and check with each item added.
If it does not work I will then try and answer any remaining questions.
Hopefully restoring from a USBdisk will work accorign to page 4/36
mount /media/usbdisk
cp /media/usbdisk/Backup-date-folder/smeserver.tgz /
(not sure where to get the info to replace usbdisk with actual mount point name and Backup-date-folder with actual folder date name)_
This would have the benefit that all updates are already in place.
Thanks, for direction.
