Yes, it was a typo. I know freebsd-update not freebsd.update and that works > only for REALEASE not STABLE. Look at my command line, (with the typo fixed) env UNAME_r=8.2-RELEASE ./freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.0 This made freebsd-update proceed as if it was a RELEASE and the upgrade succeeded. I always update STABLE with csup and make > buildworld/installworld as in handbook. > I normally use the '11 step program' as per the Makefile. I wanted to see if freebsd-update would do this. And, it does. In hind sight, I think cvsup and the '11 step program' would have been simpler. With freebsd-update, I had to manually edit a dozen, or so, files. Tom Dean
