Unless I'm thinking about this incorrectly, there should be a somewhat easy way to do this (maybe by using a release supfile, cvsup'ing, and then doing a "make world"), but I would like to know for sure from some of the experts. In short: 1) Is this possible? 2) What is the correct method? 3) Is this a particularly painful procedure? Thanks in advance for any help received. tammer saleh PS: I have already tried to find what I need in both the handbook and the faq, but to no real end. I've only found instructions for keeping up-to-date with a single release track (such as RELEASE, STABLE, or CURRENT), and nothing for changing tracks. --7JfCtLOvnd9MIVvH Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE9kLrpAOWElFvWuhMRAiBaAKCcbujY5Ttm6QeuUyPoVSRPhG9xSQCeLc+b rSXzuOp1wRPBonACJ3oAVzs= =IBL7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --7JfCtLOvnd9MIVvH-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
