Hi Kris, Thanks for replying... > d) installworld failed the first time as the user 'smmsp' didn't > exist. I dutifully followed the advice given in UPGRADE by building > and running mergemaster.

Can anyone comment on this? = It looks like your buildworld didn't complete before you tried to = installworld it. As far as the process is concerned it definitely completed, and I grepped for errors and found none in the logfile. The last thing buidlworld logged was: chmod 444 freebsd.submit.cf Having done this for the first time, I don't know what the last line should be. Does it say "buildworld complete"? > I checked the timestamp on both ld-elf.so.1 and libm.so.2 and they were > built today - anyone know what might have caused this? Do I need to > rebuild cvsup, if so how? = This is explained in UPDATING. Ah yes... thanks. > Readme.html's. Is that a bug? = No, you told cvsup to delete your ports collection (the ports tree is = not branched). This is also explained in the handbook. DOOF! Won't be doing that again in a hurry. Thanks, David
