Jared Agnew" Message-Id: <199603230528.AAA29162@vtaix.cc.vt.edu> Subject: Questions about stable To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Sat, 23 Mar 1996 00:28:01 +22324924 (EST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL21] Content-Type: text Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hrrm, where to begin. I'm trying to sup the new sources to stable, however I've runn into a few errors, but they are probably my fault! But, I've restarted, and now tried to sup again. I've figured that sup5.freebsd.org is the closest to me. But I have a FreeBSD mirror (about 50 yards from me) really close. Anyway my question is, can I make my system stable or current without using sup or CVS, or can I figure out how to tell sup to use the mirror, that is not a sup server. Second question is about elf binaries, I'd like to know if there is a package or directions (explicit directions!!!) to getting elf to work when I get stable working? Thanks for any help!!! --- Jared --jared@vt.edu
