One of the reason I want to install -current is that I am looking at the source code at http://lxr.linux.no/freebsd, which I find out is newer than FreeBSD 3.2-release I have. I just look at the CTM sites, there are several directories like src-3/, src-cur/, cvs-cur/, ports-cur/. Can you please tell me which directories should I download deltas from? I am not sure what is the "starter" delta for FreeBSD 3.2-Release. The names of deltas (e.g. src-3.0001.gz) do not look like what the FreeBSD handbook describes. Thanks for your help. -Zhihui To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
