Now we decided to move up to 2.1R for a more stable environment. After experimenting with the upgrade option in the 2.1R installation, it ruins my old 2.05R settings at my home. Now I want to know if there is anybody who has successfully upgraded from 2.05R to 2.1R manually. I plan to do this manually and hope you can help.

Fortunately my tendency not to make gratuitous changes (but to make specific changes on ALL machines I install) makes it not all that hard, and all the applications I needed were over in /usr/local. ...

The FreeBSD 2.0.5 machine already has 4 1gig EIDE drives and a SCSI tape (all of which work :). When I attache the drive the controller recognizes the tape, then drive (0 and 1 SCSI ID respectively) but when FreeBSD boots (from the EIDE drive) it will 'hang' when 'waiting for SCSI devices and gives the cmd/buffer full type message. I purchased a new SCSI-2 cable thinking the cable might be bad, same result... anything else I can do to figure this out? -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Wilson mwilson@flash.net System Admin.
