Greg, Thanks for all your work on the book The Complete FreeBSD. I installed FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE on CD-ROM when it came out. Now I would like to upgrade to FreeBSD 3.3-STABLE. I looked at the handbook and your own chapter 19, but didn't see any mention of the utility of: cd /usr/src make update In fact, I can't find any documentation about this target anywhere, other than the one-line description in the Makefile, which indicates that it updates sources via CVS. Does this mean I could just periodically 'make update' instead of the other, lengthier procedures? -Mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
