Thanks for the speedy reply, Sheldon.
Then it is as I suspected, they are different.
I will use cvsup. So this evening I did a
cd /usr/src then make buildworld. this ran
for a couple hours then I did a make installworld.
that ran for about a half hour. now i am rebuilding
and rebooting the kernel. in the future, how do I
just update my sources with cvsup changes and only recompile
those sources affected? make world wipes out and rebuilds
everything. do I make update or just make or what?
