If you have the 4.4 CD, you can choose the Upgrade option from the installation menu. The alternative is to cvsup the sources and then build a 4.4 system from it. If you choose the latter option (you'll learn a lot more!), instructions are available from: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html Cheers. -- Jonathan Chen <jonathan.chen@itouch.co.nz> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Power corrupts, Absolute Power is pretty neat To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
