Just off the top of my head, it seems to me, from what you've described, you aren't following the correct procedure. I suggest following the procedure in /usr/src/UPDATING. What you want is located towards the end. I fact, I'll quote it here for you: To rebuild everything and install it on the current system. ----------------------------------------------------------- # Note: sometimes if you are running current you gotta do more than # is listed here if you are upgrading from a really old current. <make sure you have good level 0 dumps> <maybe fix /etc/fstab> [7] make buildworld make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE [1] <reboot in single user> [3] /etc/rc.d/preseedrandom [10] mergemaster -p [5] make installworld mergemaster [4] <reboot> Also, be aware that 5.3 uses some different groups and users, you're going to have to put your users and passwords back in.
