Do not use DP1 as the starting point. Instead, use one of the snapshot ISO's that we've been discussing in the thread with the "Subject:" of: Re: HEADS UP: Old port recompiles needed (Re: Unknown symbol"__sF") The best method I have discovered so far is to: 1) Install a 4.x-RELEASE 2) "Upgrade" using the most recent snapshot you can find 3) Using an NFS mounted CVS tree, checkout and follow the "upgraqde from source" process, which will not work properly from DP-1, but works fine from the snapshot. -- Terry To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
