In addition to this you need the cvsup binary and need to create a cvsupfile in /etc. ------------------------------- cvsup -g -L 2 /etc/cvsupfile cd /usr/src time make buildworld cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/config make install cd /sys/i386/conf config kernel-config-file cd ../../kernel-config-file make clean && make depend && make cd /usr/src make installworld cd /sys/compile/kernel-config-file make install reboot ----------------------------------- Hope this helps!
