Two more bits of advice: If you find yourself stuck halfway through the upgrade and need to reboot your old kernel for some reason, remember, the live filesystem on the 2.2.[678] CD-ROMs is your very good friend. Before you try to upgrade, I recommend copying the a.out "mount_cd9660" program to a safe place on the root partition. That way you can still mount the old binaries, libraries, etc., if your installation barfs. (You say you didn't buy the CD-ROMs? Shame on you!) Also, the new named and pccardd do not like the config files from the old named and pccardd. Updates need to be done by hand. -Michael Robinson To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
