Yes, except I ran into some problems this last time where, after successfully booting the new kernel in single-user mode, installing world, running mergemaster, rebooting and finding the new kernel didn't work, I couldn't get the old kernel to work, either. :-( Apparently, something had changed just enough somewhere to make the old kernel go kerplooey, too. -- Conrad Sabatier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - "In Unix veritas" _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
