Dear all, I was running FreeBSD 8.1 and am in the process of updating it following advice in handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html ran # freebsd-update fetch # freebsd-update install # portupgrade -af # freebsd-update -r 8.2-RELEASE upgrade then # freebsd-update install Tried to do this: # portupgrade -f ruby # rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db # portupgrade -f ruby18-bdb # rm /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db /usr/ports/INDEX-*.db # portupgrade -af Did not work correctly[too many customizations] and Tried again # freebsd-update install and had nothing more to do :( I had many packages that need to be updated so I am running : # portupgrade -arRp will this prompt me for customizations? Thanks in advance/advice/suggestions. I am taking the plunge a little further. Before I just installed and left it alone :( [except for a few packages that I wanted and ran/installed via ports ], now I am trying to learn more and setup the firewall. I set up the simple example setup by Polytropon and most is working. My freebsd version has moved to FreeBSD 8.2 [olivares@grullahighschool /usr/home/olivares]$ uname -a FreeBSD grullahighschool.rgccisd.org 8.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE #0: Thu Feb 17 02:41:51 UTC 2011 r...@mason.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 Regards, Antonio _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
