Date: Tue, 23 Feb 1999 18:50:45 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.2448.0) Content-Type: text/plain Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I hate to ask such a commonly asked questions, and I have been following the list and have been reading every relevant posting, but I am still a bit confused as to the exact steps on how to successfully upgrade from 2.2.8 to 3.1-RELEASE via sources. I have read references about updating bootblocks and aout-to-elf makes, and several other things. I've looked at the few web sites I could find and while they are helpful, they are not complete. So my question is, step-by-step, how do I successfully upgrade from 2.2.8 to 3.1-RELEASE? And also, does "make upgrade" work yet? and if so are there any additional steps I need to take on top of that? If there is a web site, FAQ, etc... that someone can point me to I am more than happy to look. Also, is there anything in the works to add this to the FAQ?
