Stay put for the moment, because there's currently a bug in freebsd_fixup_old_auxargs that got missed at the last moment that makes the upgrade much harder than it should be. (The kernel is currently panicing when running old binaries.) After that's fixed, we'll come up with better instructions for different upgrade scenarios. The general idea is that this will require a reboot into the new kernel before installing the new world though, to handle the new auxv format that we transitioned to at the same time. This will likely also mean you might need to run installworld *twice* because it will probably crash out the first time. -- Brandon Bergren Technical Generalist ___ svn-src-all@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/svn-src-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "svn-src-all-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

Do powerpc people need to do something special while updating? Like a clean buildkernel/buildworld. Or is this just a note for historical bookkeeping? Regards, Ronald.
