Message-ID: <19991221151511.A11238@shaka.acc.umu.se> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 1.0i Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG I never really figured this out. Does choosing distribution (User, Developer, X-User etc) really matter if one is going to cvsup sources and do a "make world"? Isn't "make world" going to install everything anyway? And last.. how does one change between these distribution sets after install? (without using sysinstall.. there must be some underlying mechanism?). Thanks in advance..
