As always, read /usr/src/UPDATING. There are clues that you have to deal with such as running mergemaster -p before you do the installworld.

Remember to read /usr/src/UPDATING. Most potential pitfalls and problems should be described there. (Be sure to read the 20020404 entry in particular. You need to run mergemaster -p before installworld or the installworld will fail.) -- Insert your favourite quote here.

I caught the smmsp factoid before upgrading other servers to 4.7 and 4.7-PRE but it had slipped thru the seive of my memory, so your tip is appreciated! Anyway, about to launch (and down several shots of Bourbon:). If thought.org disappears from the net, you'll know what happened gary -- Insert your favourite quote here.
