I don't pretend to understand *all* of the reasoning behind the recommended upgrade procedure. Since I began using FreeBSD, I have performed somewhere around 50 system upgrades on various machines, most of them 4.x, and have upgraded 5.1->5.2 on four machines. Of those system upgrades, two have failed, or 'not worked.' One of them was due to the fact that I didn't follow the recommended procedure (admittedly, supplemented with list wisdom), the other, because I didn't follow the recommended procedure. It just works. -- Joshua Worlds are conquered, galaxies destroyed -- but a woman is always a woman. -- Kirk, "Conscience of the King", stardate unknown
