Did you set the PKG_PATH to the snapshot package directory on the mirror? You can use the following which sthen posted previously /usr/sbin/pkg_info -aq > PKG_LIST_FULL or /usr/sbin/pkg_info -mg > PKG_LIST_MANUAL To get a list of installed packages and something like /usr/bin/env PKG_PATH="http://???snapshot/packages/amd64"; /usr/sbin/pkg_add -zl PKG_LIST_MANUAL to install the same set built for current Don't forget to check out www.openbsd.org/faq/current.html and plus.html and the faq on upgrading to current -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
