> Hi > > Should I use cvsup or current boot.flp for upgrade ? -current snapshots for the last week or so have been broken. It's relatively straightforward to bootstrap up from 2.2, presuming that you are willing to deal with upgrading /etc/, remember to install the new X binaries, and deal with the changed utmp/wtmp format. > I have 2*200PPro system running 2.2-STABLE and would like to use second > CPU as well... have successfully tested 3.0-CURRENT on monoprocessor 486 > system. If this is a production system, I would hold off at the moment. If you're using it as a workstation or a personal box, then by all means give it a go. You might also want to consider reinstalling from a SNAP from very early February (say 5th or before), then cvsup at will. -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
