Then mergemaster -- blammo: What is your exact make sequences are? I usually do this way: # csup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile # cd /usr/src here I usually softlink my kernel config file in /root directory to appropriate architecture one and edit /etc/make.conf: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUP_UPDATE=yes SUPHOST=cvsup.no.FreeBSD.org SUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile PORTSSUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile DOCSUPFILE=/usr/share/examples/cvsup/doc-supfile KERNCONF=KERNEL --------------------------------------------------------------------------- /usr/src/sys/amd64/conf KERNEL -> /root/kernel/KERNEL # make buildkernel # make installkernel # make buildworld # mergemaster -p # make installworld # mergemaster NOTE: I do not reboot my system until everything is updated. Why it is necessary to boot new kernel and then upgrade world is beyound me..YMMW
