There is nothing special, simple buildworld just works... Indeed. There is a slight catch if you want to perform installworld and the upgrade procedure from that location, namely that the -m argument to mergemaster is needed, but the buildworld itself just works. -Ben Kaduk ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
