I was wondering can anyone tell me the correct procedure for updating my
sources to the current 4.7 source. From what I can make out so far if I
want to update my source I would use the following cvsup file:
*default host=cvsup.ie.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all

I would then issue the following commands:
cd /etc
cvsup -g -L 1 cvsupfle

When the cvsup has finished successfully I would then:
cd /usr/src/            // this is all assuming that I have properly      
                        configured my make.conf
make world

When this has finished I would re-compile my kernel and reboot.
Are these steps correct or am I missing anything?
