This seems like a really dumb question to me, but I'm having such a rough last two weeks that I'd rather be sure by sounding stupid, than by looking stupid. What I'm doing is upgrading a machine to RELEASE_5_1 (to take care of the recent arp problems) and I wasn't paying attention when I started cvsupping, and accidentally started it cvsupping to HEAD instead. I realized my mistake halfway through and canceled it. Then restarted it with the proper "tag=RELENG_5_1" Now, I'm looking at all the files that were checked out during the cvsup to RELENG_5_1 and I'm a bit nervious. I assume it's doing checkouts because it's easier than doing reverse diffs? (or reverse diffs aren't even possible?) While screwing this machine up wouldn't ruin my life, it would add considerable time to what it would take to get it to where I wanted it (which I can't really afford right now) So, my question is: Can anyone say with confidence that this machine will build a sane world/kernel for RELENG_5_1 after what I did? If not, I'll just wipe out /usr/src and install a fresh source and re-cvsup. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com
