After you've obtained the new sourcecode do the following.
`cd /usr/src' (or to the directory containing your source tree).
`make buildworld'
`make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC).
`make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE' (default is GENERIC).
`reboot' (in single user mode: boot -s from the loader prompt).
`mergemaster -p'
`make installworld'
`mergemaster'
`reboot'
Hi all,
I mentioned I'd report back. I followed the usual upgrade instructions
provided above. Everything built and installed smoothly.
Before:
%uname -rims
FreeBSD 6.3-PRERELEASE i386 GENERIC
After:
%uname -rims
FreeBSD 7.0-STABLE i386 GENERIC
So all seems well. I won't mention ports here, I am just concerned with
kernel and world for now.
That said... YMMV, #include <disclaimer.h>, etc
Regards,
Adam J Richardson
