Hi! I've now decided to move over to -CURRENT. Yesterday I CVSUp'ed to -CURRENT from a fresh -STABLE, it took 2 hours(V90 modem, P200MMX, IDE drives _only_, I was surprised it took so long). I'll use a.out 3.0 for a while to somewhat lessen the gap between -STABLE and -CURRENT. Is this path relatively safe? 1. As usual: make world and then make my kernel 2. But then how about the bootblocks? Should I update them before I reboot? How do I upgrade them? disklabel -B? 3. And /dev, should/can I update it before I reboot? 4. I have a Fire GL 1000 Pro gfx card. I therefore use the XFCom_3Dlabs X server from SuSE. Are there problems with -CURRENT and this server? Any comments are appreciated. Thanks!
