rsync vs installworld

2003-10-18 Thread M. Warner Losh
I'm contemplating a binary distribution system for some systems that I have. I'm ignoring kernel updates for the moment, and concentrating on userland deployment. I'm thinking of doing something like: make buildworld make installworld DESTDIR=/big/disk/freebsd/image make mergemaster -D /big/disk
