I found the appropriate section of the Handbook which tells the reasons to use the right build procedure. I then CVSup'd source and ports today. make buildworld seems to be executing as expected. Then... the screen blanked and the mouse and keyboard quit working but, that is a story for another day. I can ssh into the machine from a laptop and see the processes running. I'll wait until the drive light stops indicating activity and ps -A tells me the build process has finished, then do a shutdown -r remotely. Thank You, michael
