Only problems I had was that the Matshushita CD-ROM driver would not compile (something about NMAT??). So I commented it out of my kernel configuration. The only other thing that happened was that the services file got truncated to 5 entries. What a surprise when telnet and Popper were not working! Fortunately, I DID MAKE A BACKUP OF ETC. So I just copied the old services file to the etc directory. I hope this was okay? I assume the upgrade option on the CD-ROM copied all the new src files to my hard drive, or should I have selected a Full Installation from the NEWBIE Menu? I have tested Xinsides X-Server and a few other programs and have had no problems or core dumps or anything of that nature. I guess the install also updated my mt program, but I cannot get the 'retension' command to work. I get an unknown command error. Is there an update to this, as I have seen E-mail about this command posted? Should I upgrade all my ports to the 2.1 versions or is it okay to use the 2.05 ports I originally installed? Any suggestions, advice, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
