I took it the wrong way when the handbook said this process is complete at the end of section 24.2 meaning the upgrade process is complete. It did say during the process that the kernel changed and I rebooted with another 'freebsd-update install' afterward. Didn't realize more processes to follow. I am using a GENERIC kernel and do not have the source on the disk, of course then I get... mx3# mergemaster -p *** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot *** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use *** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot cp: /usr/src/etc/master.passwd: No such file or directory *** FATAL ERROR: Cannot copy files to the temproot environment So, I just need to get all the source and then rebuild as you mentioned? --Robert
