I'm trying to use freebsd-update to upgrade a system from 7.0-RELEASE- p9 to 7.1 running # freebsd-update upgrade -r 7.1-RELEASE generates this Fetching metadata signature for 7.1-RELEASE from update1.FreeBSD.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Fetching 1 metadata patches. done. Applying metadata patches... done. Fetching 1 metadata files... done. Inspecting system... done. Fetching files from 7.0-RELEASE for merging... done. Preparing to download files... done. Fetching 2 files... done. /usr/sbin/freebsd-update: cannot open files/.gz: No such file or directory [snip] /usr/sbin/freebsd-update: cannot open files/.gz: No such file or directory /usr/sbin/freebsd-update: cannot open files/.gz: No such file or directory /usr/sbin/freebsd-update: cannot open files/.gz: No such file or directory Attempting to automatically merge changes in files... done. The following file will be removed, as it no longer exists in FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE: /boot/device.hints Does this look reasonable (y/n)? A couple hundred of the cannot open lines This is on a fresh install from a 7.0 boot only CD with installation via FTP. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Thanks, Dan
