install blues: overlays

[Chuck Robey]

I'd done a FreeBSD install over the top of the pre-existing OpenBSD 
install.  The way that the FreeBSD install's written, I guess it decided 
it didn't need or want a new partition, so it didn't erase the existing 
OpenBSD partitons, it just laid the FreeBSD files over the top of the 
OpenBSD files.

When I booted tcsh, I get this error:

(note the slightly fancy prompt is my business, not FreeBSD's.)

september:root:/usr/src:#40#tcsh
Message Catalog System: corrupt file.Message Catalog System: corrupt 
file.september:root:/usr/src:#28#


See the error "Message Catalog System: corrupt file" ... I figure it's 
caused by the file overlaysr/lib probably. somehow.  I tried doing a 
buildworld over the top of it, to find out where it all came from, 
because the alternative fix is very difficult to think about.
