I've been trying every few days to update from 7.1-P5 to 7.2 using freebsd-update. =A0It always goes as follows: statler # freebsd-update upgrade -r 7.2-RELEASE Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 6 mirrors found. Fetching metadata signature for 7.1-RELEASE from update5.FreeBSD.org... don= e. Fetching metadata index... done. Fetching 1 metadata patches. done. Applying metadata patches... done. Fetching 1 metadata files... done. Inspecting system... done. WARNING: This system is running a "statler" kernel, which is not a kernel configuration distributed as part of FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE. This kernel will not be updated: you MUST update the kernel manually before running "/usr/sbin/freebsd-update install". The following components of FreeBSD seem to be installed: src/base src/sys world/base world/dict world/games world/info world/manpages The following components of FreeBSD do not seem to be installed: kernel/generic src/bin src/cddl src/contrib src/crypto src/etc src/games src/gnu src/include src/krb5 src/lib src/libexec src/release src/rescue src/sbin src/secure src/share src/tools src/ubin src/usbin world/catpages world/doc world/proflibs Does this look reasonable (y/n)? y Fetching metadata signature for 7.2-RELEASE from update5.FreeBSD.org... don= e.
