Just to make sure i have this right.... i want to turn a 4.0 installation back into 3.4, preferably w/o reformatting. I'll back up /home but that will be tough, since it's huge, and all i have are floppies and a non-functional zip drive. If i boot with the 2 floppies and choose basic binary only, will that overwrite all the 4.0 binaries such that i can make world from the 3.4 tree and have everything work out OK? I haven't run mergemaster yet under 3.4, and of course i will back up /etc and /home. I'd really like to avoid a scratch reinstall, if possible. jm -- -------------------------------------------- Jonathon McKitrick -- jcm@freebsd-uk.eu.org The spice must flow.... -------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
