My last attempt was yesterday morning, and to my surprise "make buildworld" worked without any problems. This shows that things have improved very much, since this wouldn't have been possible a few weeks ago. After the buildworld I switched to single user mode and tried to run "make installworld" which crashed with signal 12 in /bin/sh. The machine was running 3.3-STABLE (december 6th). > Perhaps you'd like to post the actual error messages you get when > you try to upgrade to CURRENT? If so, please post them to the > freebsd-current mailing list. Ok, I'll start a new attempt this evening.
