Ditto here (except I use an old v.everything USR at 28.8K). Doesn't really take that much time ordinarily. Also, I use CVSup to keep a local repo up to date since it's handy sometimes to be able to retrograde /usr/src if there is an intermittent glitch in buildworld. I like having the logs locally too. I don't think you can do that with CTM deltas. Cheers, Jerry Hicks gehicks@cisco.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
