I wanted to clarify whether you "re-install" with the new release on CD or "up-grade" with the new release on CD. If you "upgrade" what packages do you "choose" to install from the newer CD to the older release ? -- Bill Schoolcraft PO Box 210076 -o) San Francisco CA 94121 /\ "UNIX, A Way Of Life." _\_v http://forwardslashunix.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
