Only if you unpack the contents of CDROM #2 from a -STABLE system into a chroot environment. Specifically, the compiler and FFS changes have added a number of incompatabilities that are insurmountable for cross-building, from my experience. Check the -current mailing list archives, as it applies to being able to cross-build versions of FreeBSD; this was covered in detail last week (and about every two weeks, previous to that). -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
