If you can run sup, and have some disk space, then you can update your source tree to current status and `make the world' :-) > 2. Can I change for example only kernel of the system? No, not recommended. > 3. What will happen with my already installed packeges and > applications in this case? Applications and packages are fine, it's just a number of system binaries that need to stay up-to-date with the kernel (routed, ifconfig, etc). > 4. Also I have installed gcc-2.6.3. Must I reinstall after changing > from 2.0-RELEASE to 2.0-SNAP version? Depends on where you've installed it.. :-) > 5. How I can configure IDE CD-ROM on my machine? Write a driver for one.. We don't support those yet! :-( Jordan
