Am trying to upgrade fbsd-7.4 to 8.3. I get all the way through the
usual procedure using sources, including installworld, when I attempt
to run mergemaster as the final step, I get this fatal error.
I've searched the list and google, but don't find the right answer.
What am I possibly doing wrong and what should I do to get around this?
The error:
mail# mergemaster -viF
*** Creating the temporary root environment in /var/tmp/temproot
*** /var/tmp/temproot ready for use
*** Creating and populating directory structure in /var/tmp/temproot
*** Press the [Enter] or [Return] key to continue
*** FATAL ERROR: Cannot 'cd' to /usr/src and install files to
the temproot environment

All the best,
