I think there is a problem trying to go to 3.4-Stable. You might try
upgrading to 3.2 first using tag=RELENG_3_2_0_RELEASE and then try
tag=RELENG_3. I don't know if this will work without removing the 3.4
source.
BTW, it isn't my site but one from the San Diego FreeBSD group. I
think the author is Doug Gorean. I tried to look up his last name but
didn't have any email from on my machine.

Do the cvsup to 3.2R and follow Nik's guide on removing the files in
/usr/obj. Someone pointed out that it was faster to do the "rm -rf *"
in /usr/obj/ first and then do the chflags operation and a second rm.
You aren't chflag'ing all files but only the ones that need to be
changed. I have /usr/obj and /usr/src mounted on different 13GB UDMA66
HD's. I link /usr4/obj as /usr/obj. They are on different IDE
channels, which gives me a small boost in speed and allows me to split
stuff I had in /.
There are major changes in the /dev files and /etc. Mergemaster will
help with the /etc files. You will need to do a ./MAKEDEV all in your
/dev directory. There are some device name changes. This occurs again
at 4.0. I haven't been following that side yet :).
Good Luck,
Kent
