I went home, download KERN.FLP and MFSROOT.FLP images, and created the boot floppies to boot the new kernel and use new SYSINSTALL. Floppies booted fine and I was able to upgrade my system with X-user option. I used FTP mode to upgrade. After the upgrade was successfully completed , I rebooted my machine and wanted to select some distributions. When I selected Configure, Distributions, the system CORE DUMPED on me. Also in SYSINSTALL, there is no C option in front of Custom line. Regards. Amrit >How-To-Repeat: Install 3.3-RELEASE on a Pentium machine and upgrade using two floppies as above and use ftp to upgrade. Upgrade it and reboot. Enter /stand/sysinstall at the command prompt. Select Configure, Distributions and yyou will get a core dump. >Fix: Nothing for now. Currently working on. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
