There was a post (from jkh ?) advising a two-step tactic : 1) from 2.2.x to 3.0-Release via make aout-to-elf 2) from 3.0-R to 3.1-S via make world As for me : I didn't want to bother about disklabelling an existing parition, merging /etc directory content, making new devices, upgrading my config file, .... So I got lazy and installed a new version on a spare partition (knowing that all of my data resides on other partitions which are alternatively mounted under 3.0-Current or 3.1-Stable) TfH PS : the spare partition was in the beginning devoted to keeping a 2.2.8-Stable version of FreeBSD (now that I have KDE1.1 on Xfree3.3.3.1, I have no need to look back) Dan Langille wrote: > > This is 3.1 Release being compiled on a 2.2.8-stable system.
