In the near future we : won't require steps 3 and 4/4a anymore and thus have a single pass : source upgrade... Folks- Let me get this straight... I have always done the following---not that this is the "right" way to do this, but it has worked pretty well for me in the past. 1) make buildworld 2) make installworld 3) cd /sys/ARCH/conf 4) config -r KERNEL 5) cd /sys/compile/KERNEL 6) make depend && make 7) make install 8) reboot Is this no longer "the way" to do it? Admittedly if your kernel build is hosed your world/kernel are out of sync, but at least, you are always building kernel with config and compiler of the same cvsup. Also, let me add to this little missive. My way works too :) I just successfully upgraded through the binutils MFC. While on this same thread, please someone tell me that when I build GENERIC, it isn't going to build all the bloody modules again ... I build a lot of different kernels, and it takes a _while_ to build even a pretty trivial kernel on a PII 233 these days :( S ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean O'Connell Email: sean@stat.Duke.EDU Institute of Statistics and Decision Sciences Phone: (919) 684-5419 Duke University Fax: (919) 684-8594 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
