When I have been running portupgrade -afkP I also ran ran 'ls -l | wc' in that folder to see how many packages I fetched. To check the progress. I had about 344 packages, all installed from ports and I ended up having 360 packages after the portupgrade command. All were downloaded except one or two (maybe xterm) which was installed from ports as the remote package was not the latest version. I also ran portsclean -C before switching to binary packages. I still have some history on console: [root@eden /usr/ports/packages/All]# ls -l total 156160 -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 169882 Apr 27 22:18 aalib-1.4.r5_5.tbz -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 630601 Apr 27 22:11 autoconf-2.68.tbz -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3641 Apr 27 21:30 autoconf-wrapper-20101119.tbz -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 3509 Apr 27 21:30 automake-wrapper-20101119.tbz They are dated Apr 27. I installed this system 3-4 days ago. Also 'rvm install 1.9.2' drops signal 4. I think it only uses make and gcc. However, make buildworld and buildkernel finishes successfully. I wouldn't like to give up. Mage
