The following reply was made to PR misc/33370; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Dag-Erling Smorgrav <des@ofug.org> To: <keramida@FreeBSD.org> Cc: freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: misc/33370: Post configuration issue Date: 13 Jan 2002 16:55:27 +0100 <keramida@FreeBSD.org> writes: > Installing a new release `on top' of an old installation should always > be done *after* a backup of important data. It is not a safe way of > upgrading a running system. The originator stated that he tried to install the compat distribution, not that he did a binary upgrade. He may have done a binary upgrade by mistake, but until we've confirmed that the PR should remain open.
