These were the instructions I was givin when I upgraded to 4.2 1) use cvsup to grab the 4.2-R source (tag=RELENG_4_2_0_RELEASE) 2) cd /usr/src 3) make world 4) edit kernel configuration file 5) make buildkernel KERNEL=<insert kernel config name here> 6) make installkernel 7) manually upgrade the files in /etc or use mergemaster 8) reboot I'm assuming you can skip 1) because your source tree is already current. matt -----Original Message----- From: Don O'Neil [mailto:doneil@amplespace.com] Sent: Friday, February 16, 2001 2:40 AM To: freebsd-questions Subject: /Stand/Sysinstall Upgrade doesn't change version I did a system upgrade from 4.1-release yesterday using /stand/sysinstall (yes, I know you can do it w/ a make-world, but I don't need the _latest_ stuff, just more recent than 4.1).... After the upgrade, the uname-a didn't show anything different... Is this normal? Shouldn't it have read 4.2-release? Thanks!
