Yes, you can do a "make world" upgrade from 2.1.7 to 2.2. It helps to remove your whole /usr/obj tree first, and also to use "find" to get rid of all symbolic links named "obj" in your /usr/src tree. After doing that, a make world should run all the way to completion. At least, it did for me. -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
