Greetings fbsders,
I wanted to clone my regular install (source) to a fresh disk (target).
Source and target different size drives, but target big enough.
What I tried:
1. booted the 6.0 386 iso 1 cd with the target drive as the only hd in

2. put a minimal install there. I wanted to
it, but I have seen a place that said to only
use dump. Oh, well. I am not quite there yet, working on baby steps.

accidentally did Undo on my installed 6.0 working slice.
Now, the mount points for my partitions fail to appear, even though I did
not write them. I just exited sysinstall.
The odd thing is that the system shows no adverse effects

I am trying to avoid upgrading two ports: kde and X.
What are the command line options to portupgrade to accomplish this?
For instance, I tried this and it failed:
#portupgrade -a -x 'kde*' -x 'x*'
Where am I going wrong?
I've read the pertinent handbook ports section, and did man portupgrade,

Apparently it was the quotes!
Upgrade appears to be working right.
