Is the current port 4.3.1 or 4.3.0? Which ever it is, I used the port to build it from scratch. I newfs'd the partition before installing 5.1. Everything on it (except for cvsup itself and its dependencies, built from the ports off the 5.1-R CD) is built from the current ports tree. cvsupfile file is: *default host=cvsup11.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs *default tag=RELENG_5_1 *default delete use-rel-suffix src-all *default tag=. ports-all doc-all Jamie Bowden -- "It was half way to Rivendell when the drugs began to take hold" Hunter S Tolkien "Fear and Loathing in Barad Dur" Iain Bowen <alaric@alaric.org.uk>
