I had the same problem about a month ago, and did the following steps to get to 4.0-stable from 5.0-current: 1. change tag to RELENG_4 and cvsup in 5.0 2. Did a minimal 4.0-release sysinstall from CD (NO SOURCE) 3. rebooted using 4.0-generic... 4. make world, and rebuilt kernel, rebooted 5. Did a final cvsup to make sure source was up to date. Whether this is the right way or not, it worked for me! Good luck ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- John A.

If so, whats the proper procedure supposed to be, other than cvsup the sources and make buildworld (as a first step)? If its not supposed to work, or is just plain broken for a while, ill try a sysinstall "upgrade" to 4-s bins. buildworld is bombing for me in cc1plus.
