Bad news? It ain't bad news for me if ye thought that =)
I always look on the bright side. 

But this brings me to a thing I want to verify with you guys. rm -rf of
/usr/src and /usr/obj will not interfere the system as it is now right?
But where do I cvsup my files in? In /usr/src or on a seperate slice, this
has me wondering up till now.

Right now I cvsup into slice /src (wrong name, I know ;) and make world
from /src/src, but obviously /usr/src doesn't get updated that way. Am I
missing something stated with a 30 pt font on the webpages/manuals/handbook?

Thanks in advance for clearing that up,
