Hello Manolis, I don't use freebsd-update myself. I still use csup and the long procedure, but I have a question on the GENERIC kernel. You say he does not need to recompile anything? Does that mean freebsd-update pulls in a new GENERIC kernel based on the latest source tree? -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ "Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently." --Henry Ford
