Upgrading from 2.2.x to 3.0 is a hell of a job because of the switch to .elf. But if you don't have X I suggest you to try out the upgrade option in the menu presented to you by the install program on the cdrom. However your /etc directory isn't completely upgraded so bring in every change in /etc/upgrade as well, especially the stuff in rc and rc.conf. Groetjes, Berend.
