Luckily enough, 'build installworld' is not quite frequent task to do ;-) Moreover, UPDATING tells us we should do this in single-user mode so noexec harms noone but you The Machine Superior ;-) Sincerely, D.Marck [DM5020, DM268-RIPE, DM3-RIPN] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *** Dmitry Morozovsky --- D.Marck --- Wild Woozle --- marck@rinet.ru *** ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
