When I type "make installworld" I get, "ERROR: Required audit gropup is missing, see /usr/src/UPDATING." So I got to take a look at that file. There is a lot of interesting stuff there, but nothing about an audit group that should be present (at least a search for "audit group" returned no hits). What is this error talking about? Which section of the UPDATING file should I read and follow to correct this? I read, "When upgrading from one major version to another it is generally best to upgrade to the latest code in the currently installed branch first, then do an upgrade to the new branch." Does this refer to an upgrade from, say, 5.1 to 6.2, or does this apply to 6.0 to 6.2 as well? I also see, To rebuild everything and install it on the current system make buildworld make kernel KERNCONF=....... mergemaster -p make installworld make delete-old mergemaster Is this the procedure I should follow? What is the correct path to go from here? Andy
