Hi all, I'm having a problem updating my freebsd 7 amd64 box. After a recent freebsd-update, the kernel and linker.hints were updated. However with subsequent freebsd-updates, it reports that linker.hints still needs to be updated. I can (re)install but always the same. The linker.hints timestamp is being updated and the md5 isn't changed after reboot, so why this? I have tried removing /var/db/freebsd-update and rebuilding with no success. Btw, my freebsd 7 i386 box updated in one go with no problems. Anyone else seen this? FreeBSD fac51.pattersonsoftware.com 7.0-RELEASE-p2 FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE-p2 #0: Wed Jun 18 06:48:16 UTC 2008 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Cheers, Gary.
