I have a laptop that I am currently updating world to the latest from the v6 branch, once that is done I want to completely start fresh with the GUI. Right now I have gnome in a mostly working state, a mostly out of date KDE and a bunch of other random crud I have installed over the last 16 months or so. Instead of trying to use portupgrade and have it fail out/fix/restart, I was thinking life would be easier if I just removed anything graphical and start that from scratch. This way all my settings/data remain intact and I can just do a pkg install the new stuff.
Is anyone aware of a quick/safe way of blowing away nearly all installed apps as such to start from near scratch. I do use bash and probably a couple other non-GUI installs, so I didn't necessarily want to kill _all_ installed ports/pkgs but I might be willing to do that if needed. Any thought on the best way to approach this? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
