The real pain is that there doesn't seem to be a way stop users from upgrading before they actually do it. I think what'll happen is that sometime tomorrow I'll add an option to newvers.sh to detect a cross version change and have the world and installworld and installkernel targets check and prompt unless something like EARLY_ADOPTER=YES is set in make.conf or you're building a 'release'. Would that be ok? -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
