You should *really* use 'make buildkernel' in the toplevel if you're combining it with a world update. Recommended procedure: ~# cvsup /my/5.1.supfile ~# cd /usr/src /usr/src# make buildworld /usr/src# make buildkernel KERNCONF=<yourKERNELname> /usr/src# make installkernel KERNCONF=<yourKERNELname> /usr/src# reboot OK boot -s # fsck -p && mount -a # ( cd /usr/src && make installworld ) # reboot OK boot Also read chapter 21 of the Handbook. -- Josh > > Tom Veldhouse > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Andrew Robinson" <andrewr@uidaho.edu> > To: <freebsd-questions@freebsd.org> > Sent: Thursday, June 12, 2003 10:05 AM > Subject: Upgrading 5.0 -> 5.1 > > > > Hi all, > > > > I'm trying to figure out what options I have for upgrading from 5.0 to > 5.1. > > Can I just use csvup to change my local copy of the source code, and > > recompile?
