That seems the logical thing to do, there is also the least chance of things breaking along the way. Remember 4.1-RELEASE is quite a few months old, if not more. -- Jonathan --- X Philius wrote: > Folks, > I'm running into problems running 'make buildworld' after syncing my source via CVsup to 4.4 > Release, currently running 4.1 Release.
