Do "locate UPDATING" if you don't know where it's kept (src) and so then look at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/UPDATING and click on the left-most link and then the upper-left-most link. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
RELENG_6 upgrade from RELENG_5
Hi, Before I go crazy and change my RELENG_5 to 6 and resync my sources, can someone point me at a README/UPDATING for upgraders? I'm sure I'll find one _after_ I cvsup, but I'd like to read it first. thanks -- Joel Hatton -- Security Analyst| Hotline: +61 7 3365 4417 AusCERT - Australia's national CERT | Fax: +61 7 3365 7031 The University of Queensland| WWW: www.auscert.org.au Qld 4072 Australia | Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
