I am going 3.4 to stable. this is not recommended (3.4 to 4.x-STABLE ... this is what I infer from your message). First, update your box to 3.5.1-STABLE (keep RELENG_3 in your CVSup file). Make sure that succeeds. THEN change to RELENG_4, CVSup the sources and read /usr/src/UPDATING and memorize it :) The full instructions on how to go from the latest 3-STABLE to 4-STABLE are there amongst the entries. Just be sure to follow all directions and use the "buildkernel" targets. You might want to just start with a GENERIC kernel (if you can get away with it) first. I remember when I did it I took my kernel config file from 3-STABLE and tried to use it without edits. I cannot remember exactly what the error was but the 4-STABLE "config" (that is built by "buildworld" and used by "buildkernel") didn't like something. Some sort of syntax changed. So, I recommend doing GENERIC first, then take that and your previous conf file and merge the significant differences. Good luck. -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds WCCG, CCE, Higher Levels of Abstraction | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 602-868-6512 | | jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
