You are correct, it is not an "equivalent" upgrade but it is the only available upgrade. :) It'll basically just give you the configuration tool, not the stand-alone installer which is a crunched image. If it weren't so kludge, I'd have sysinstall's install procedure remove all the links. :) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
