Look at my command line, (with the typo fixed) env UNAME_r=8.2-RELEASE ./freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.0 This made freebsd-update proceed as if it was a RELEASE and the upgrade succeeded.

And, it does. In hind sight, I think cvsup and the '11 step program' would have been simpler. With freebsd-update, I had to manually edit a dozen, or so, files. Tom Dean
