klaus, the best bet is to upgrade the source code via cvsup, and then do a make world from the source (/usr/src). so, if you edit the cvsup files (/usr/share/examples/cvsup) to have the cvsup server nearest you.. check the handbook. this should work. also, check the handbook (http://www.freebsd.org/handbook) it has all the instructions on doing upgrades. minor, and major. -- jan On Mon, 24 Apr 2000, Klaus Steden wrote: > Hi, > > What's the proper procedure for minor version upgrades?
