According to your reply, you said: "3.1 is just around the corner, and the upgrade path is very different. It will also be relatively complicated to upgrade from 3.0-RELEASE to 3.1-RELEASE" Would you like to tell me which path is different? I read Handbook, looks like I just run /stand/sysinstall, then select 'upgrade' option, that's it, isn't it?? Correct me if I'm wrong, thanks. -Albert. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
