How often would you recommend > doing the make installworld? Why would you _only_ buildworld? That doesn't actually install the new system you just built, it just sits there in /usr/src/. That said the frequency with which you do that is pretty subjective. If things are working happily for you, you can certainly make world a lot less frequently. If you just like doing it then move to -current. :-) Brett ***************************************************** Dr. Brett Taylor brett@peloton.runet.edu * Dept of Chem and Physics * Curie 39A (540) 831-6147 * Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics * Walker 234 (540) 831-5410 * ***************************************************** To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
