I have the same problem. Hubbard advised to waiting until mid February for the dust to settle. Here it is. More dust. I don't know whether it would be better go to 3.1R from 3.0R or to track 3.1-Stable. I haven't found any clear cut outline of the steps for either. There was a bunch of mumbling around on console changes, boot block stuff, etc. I had been cvsup'ing releng3, anticipating building world, watching the flak on this group, when JKH told everyone to stop whining and wait. I tried to add sound to the kernel, forgetting about my source tree being changed from the release, and when the make was done I got some message about forcing an install. I said no thanks. So, I'm still not doing anything until I see better instructions for this case. What a weenie, I know. :-} mike grommet wrote: > > Hi guys...
