I was pretty easy to do, although it is important = to follow all the steps in UPDATING in order to avoid problems booting. = The link below is a step by step that I osted a way back just after = successfully updating. http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=3D208500+0+archive/2000/free= bsd-stable/20000430.freebsd-stable -- Kevin G. Eliuk, Coast Cable and Communications Ltd. ---------- From: Mark Conway Wirt Sent: Friday, May 26, 2000 4:30 PM To: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org Subject: Upgrading from 3.4-stable to 4.0-stable I'm getting ready to upgrade (via source) from RELENG_3 to RELENG_4. I grabbed th UPDATING file from branches/4.0-stable/src to see if there are any "gotchas", and the file begins: "Updating Information for FreeBSD current users" Well, I'm not going to -current (I'm going to -stable), so I'm not sure if this file is relevant. Perhaps it's the wrong file, or perhaps the title just hasn't been changed. Either way, are there any problems in this upgrade? I remember going from RELENG_2 to RELENG_3 had a few idiosyncrasies. I was one mention in the archives that one need to go to 4.0-release first, but I haven't been able to verify that in any documentation. Any help/insight is greatly appreciated. --Mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
