Great,
sysmerge(8) is what I'm looking for.Thanks a lot! I can see this in some misc@ article,that old tool changed to sysmerge(8),but I was not using it before so I just run out this message and don't take a look at this tool. -----Original Message----- From: Dorian BC<ttner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2008 9:06 AM To: Tomas Bodzar Cc: misc@openbsd.org Subject: Re: Using snapshots - not sure with upgrade process -> BFU :-) Tomas Bodzar schrieb: > Hi all, > > > > I still read FAQ and some man pages again and again (useful and very > readable info),but I'm still not sure or my english is terrible :-) > > > > If I have 4.3 -release and make Upgrade with install44.iso snapshot (say from > 28.8.),do I need all the changes pointed here > http://www.openbsd.org/faq/current.html or only changes after 28.8. or make > changes only for things I was using or all changes are in snapshot? > > I tried apply patches or follow -stable couple of times and everyting was ok > -> FAQ is "clear" for me.But here I'm not so sure. > > I'm trying this in Qemu so mistakes are not so terrible. > > > > During Upgrade there is an info to apply manually necessary changes in /etc > ,but which changes?I have config only for pf(4),I have this system for learn > base (utilities and so on). > > > > Could someone point me to right direction (what to read about snapshots,man > page) ? > > It's my understanding that anything changed is contained in the snapshot, except it doesn't change your configuration during an upgrade. You can use sysmerge (see plus.html for that) nowadays with etc44.tgz to merge configuration changes.
