Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Ok, so I CVSup'd and "make buildworld"'d the 2.2 source tree. Now I want to install it. Is it safe to just make install it over my current setup? Or had I better clear everything out first? Are there any gotchas I should look out for? What about the kernel, I seem to recall that a make install won't do anything about a new kernel? Ben "You have your mind on computers, it seems."
