  • Now nuke the dynamic data, and force a database rebuild, using the following sequence of commands:
    Code:
    cat /dev/zero > /dev/hda3
    rwm
    rm /empeg/var/[dtp]*
    player -i
    ## wait for the player to rebuild databases and start up,
    ## then hit Control^C again, and continue with:
    rom
    exit

Good luck!



These instructions worked to stop a segfault/segkill error that was restarting the player right after it was "Loading Visuals". I'm using V3 Alpha and the visual looks like it was the (stock, not modified) "Image Pan" visual that was crashing the player.

At first, I tried loading the "nukesavearea2.zImage" (from this post) but that didn't work.

So thank you!!! laugh
