[-- Attachment #1 --] Trying to upgrade my FreeBSD-6.1-R to 6.3-R, I followed the schema of Colin Percival at FreeBSD site. The matter is that when I type "sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -r 6.3-RELEASE upgrade", as root I got "freebsd-update.sh: Directory does not exist or it is not writable: /var/db/freebsd-update" My FreeBSD-6.1-R runs some important libraries and just one interface is installed (X window system) I left out Gnome and KDE, i. e, not all the 0S is installed. Would it be necessary to install everything? Regards Luizexit [-- Attachment #2 --] # $FreeBSD: src/etc/freebsd-update.conf,v 1.1.2.1 2006/09/02 11:05:23 cperciva Exp $ # Trusted keyprint.
