I'm basically moving from 5.3 RELEASE-p2 to p3, will my userland be stable enough to start afresh? > > #mount -a > > #cd /usr/src > > #mergemaster -p > > #make installworld > > > > (setting of variables omitted, i'm typing from the screen!) > > /tmp/install.XXXXXXXX make -f Makefile.inc1 reinstall > > This is something I don't think I've ever seen.

I think you may have misunderstood, the /tmp* line is output from the makefile, not a command that I have typed. I have rebooted to clear my head (and /tmp amongst other things) and mounted my partitions (as Joshua suggested) but I still get the same 'permission denied' error. Upon re-checking /usr/src/UPDATING, I've confirmed that it describes the process I am performing to the letter. I'm at a loss currently.
