(probably somewhere really logical like a README somewhere :) Sorry, it's been a loooong day... I saw an article somewhere that said some people use /stand/sysinstall for binary upgrades - I usually don't use /stand/sysinstall other than during installation so not sure about that one. Would that be a prefered way of doing it? Thanks again, Jo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
