Having finished classes and thus having a bit more time, I'd like
to catch up with FreeBSD-current. Via CTM, I now have the current
(as of yesterday) sources. I have not done a source code upgrade
since the patchkit days so I have a couple questions
1. How much work space is required for a make world.
1a. Is is reasonable to follow along, cleaning up object files
as the build proceeds if I don't have quite enough space?
2. Can I just "make world", build a new kernel, install the new
/etc and reboot, or is there something that is going to
break coming from a system as far back as 2.0R?
Thanks,
-john
