I don't have console access (to do a single user access) so I do all the things in multiuser mode via SSH: -- make buildworld make buildkernel KERNCONF = KERNNAME make installkernel KERNCONF = KERNNAME make installworld mergemaster -svia mergemaster -svir reboot -- And, everything goes right. My question is: what is the real danger of doing `installworld` in multiuser mode? I have doing a lot of tests in other machines tracking STABLE and I have no problems so far. I choose the RELENG_4_3 for my server because I think it is the best way of apply the security fixes, am I right? Thanks very much, -- -- Nuno Teixeira Dir.
