He does have the 4.1.1 CDROM and he could fdimage the floppies on it to get a 4.1.1 sysinstall at boot. Kent ---------------------------------------------------------------- I'm sorry but I seem to be going around in circles. If I do a 'make' using my current system (3.3), that will be incorrect for installing 4.1.1, true? But your final comment is the one I'm trying to see. As I asked in my prior message, if I 'fdimage' each of the '.flp' files and begin the installation with the 'kern.flp' disk, will it at some point show me the 'sysinstall' screens to do an upgrade? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Neal Koss, MD nkoss@dr.com Eudora Pro 5.0 http://www.healinx.com/doc/kossmd http://www.checkthegrid.com Before you go to the movies...Check The Grid! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
