Ok. I'm building world now. I never compiled anything in this source tree, From de RC1 sources, I made cvsup with the RELENG_5_3 tag, and I'm building the world and kernel with the following make.conf: # Begin of make.conf # -- use.perl generated deltas -- # # Created: Sat Nov 6 04:24:01 2004 # Setting to use base perl from ports: PERL_VER=5.8.5 PERL_VERSION=5.8.5 PERL_ARCH=mach NOPERL=yo NO_PERL=yo NO_PERL_WRAPPER=yo CFLAGS= -O -pipe MAKE_SHELL?=sh COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe MAKE_IDEA= YES # IDEA (128 bit symmetric encryption) # End of make.conf Note that NOPROFILE isn't defined, so 'make buildworld' is making everything. I am upgrading from 5.3 RC1, do I need to go to single user mode, to install the world and the kernel of 5.3?

The primary issue I'm aware of, and I'll mention it specifically because I'm responsible for it, is that we made a last minute change to the device driver ABI for network device drivers. When you do the update, make sure that all modules are rebuilt -- especially if you're using a third party of ports-built network device driver module.
