I am running 2.2.8-STABLE and I have some questions regarding the upgrade. 1. How do I compile an ELF kernel? How do I install the new boot loader? 2. Will all the ports work with an ELF system? Will my already installed ports work with ELF? Most importantly, will XFree86 3.3.3 compiled on a 2.2.8 system work with ELF? Will StarOffice 4.0 work with ELF? Thanks. -Spike Gronim sporkl@ix.netcom.com The majority only rules those who let them.
