 Hi,

    I tried installing 703, and it had some problems. So I used
 the 'o' key to revert back to my old load. I then tried to
 'su -l' in terminal activity and got Permission denied. It seems
 that going backward has left su with following permissions:

 ls -ls /bin/su
 -r-sr-x--- 3 root wheel 24064 Nov 2 2007 /bin/su

    I cannot get into the console by using the CTRL-ALT-F1 key
 either. Any ideas on what to do ?
