So having pushed myself through two machine upgrades in the last couple of days.... I've reproduced the missing crypto bug when compiling a kernel..... I think I've isolated it. If you try to build a custom kernel with IPSEC options the make will bomb. This will happen even after the current UPDATING instructions are complete. But... if you do a buildworld and installworld with existing source after getting 4.0 running, then you can implement IPSEC in the kernel. Other than that I ran in to two FYIs.... One.. you might remind admins upgrading to write down the fstab before rebooting in to single user mode. It's good to know when you want to mount them. (including the swap partition for swapon) Two... I ran in to a disk space problem (disk space alloted by one of those 3.x sysinstall's) when doing a make installworld after the make -installworld. Admittedly I had built a custom kernel as well as a generic kernel when testing 'make buildkernel'. So I had /kernel /kernel.old /kernel.GENERIC /kernel.prev and /CUSTOMKERNEL taking up all of the disk space, but hopefully a userfriendly upgrade document might mention this condition, just in case someone wades in to the deep end only to find themselves buried deep in the **** -- ----- Tom Legg tjlegg@shore.net http://www.shore.net/~tjlegg/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
