David, > I ran into a similar issue upgrading from 7.2 to 7.3. Here's the > thread where I worked it out; it might be helpful in your case: > http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2010-July/218443.html > My eventual solution was here, if you don't want to read through the > whole thread: > http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2010-July/218884.html I ended up getting instructions from a friend n manually running # make buildworld # mergemaster -p # make installworld # mergemaster -i to get the world upgraded to 7.4-PRERELEASE. After this a bunch of removing, reinstalling, and upgrading of ports was necessary, but everything appears to be working now. Of course, not having a FreeBSD CD for any version of FreeBSD would make copying a file from the CD rather difficult... ;) Keith S.
