FreeBSD V8.0 that I'm slowley getting to know (and beginning to like!) FreeBSD FBSD.67MK181QZ 8.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE #0: Wed Apr 14 22:55:09 BST 2010 root@FBSD.67MK181QZ:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/PPSGENERIC i386 Looking to install the Hiawatha webserver, but got this when I tried... pkg_add -r hiawatha Error: Unable to get ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.0- release/Latest/hiawatha.tbz: File unavailable (e.g., file not found, no access) pkg_add: unable to fetch 'ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.0- release/Latest/hiawatha.tbz' by URL It worked ok on a V8.1 box I threw together for testing things during the works lunch hour. So, can I (and how) get this version to use I guess the 8.1 repository, or how do I cleanly update this to 8.1, though to maintain my needed PPS support I guess I'll need to recompile the kernel again? Is the change from V8.0 to V8.1 realy that a big step? Or compile Hiawatha from sources? (I *Will* need guidance and hand- holding to do that!) Advice please, before I mess things up. Regards. Dave B.
