Also my "internet connection sharing" (aka "nat"/gateway) stopped working, reinstalling 3.4 again.. - Jay -----Original Message----- From: Jay Krell To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Thursday, March 23, 2000 1:51 AM Subject: how to "upgrade" (make world) from stable to current? 3.4 cvsuped to the tip of stable is extremely unreliable for me. Building ports while fetching other ports usually panics about a vm object being deallocated too many times (ref count is zero at start of dealloc). Rather than give on BSD, since I like that it is one distribution, easily kept up to date, and the ports collection, I tried cvsuping to current (I thought 4.0, but actually 5.0). So, now, how do I "upgrade"? I basically have one system, one drive. [] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
