Your problem seems to stem from your misunderstanding of how things actually work. The stuff you want is in /usr/src/usr.sbin/sysinstall and has nothing at all to do with CVSup. I'm not trying to flame you here or make you feel stupid, please don't take this message that way. You just seem to have some misconceptions that are leading you in the wrong direction and I'm just trying to point them in a better direction :-) - jim -- jim mock jim@FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
