Hi,
Doing a source upgrade from 8.1-8.2, all went well up to the installworld

I kind of keyed in on your mentioning of portupgrade. Portupgrade is a tool
for automating the upgrading of installed software. While I believe it, and
possibly portmaster can operate on pre-built packages I myself stopped using
packages a long time ago. I compile everything.

. It does let you use a program to see which
installed applications need to be updated, like pkg_version or
portversion.
Here's a document I've been working on lately about upgrading ports.
I'm not sure it's really there yet, but it covers the basics:

The thing I don't quite understand though is that if the ports tree
gets refreshed, do the packages get upgraded or will I need to
rebuild them??
You have to rebuild them.
Does this apply to ports too??
Yes. A package is just a port that someone has
any installed applications. It does let you use a program to see which
installed applications need to be updated, like pkg_version or
portversion.

Hi,
I have 2 servers one production and another test.
The test machine's packages however, seem to be older then the
production machines one's even though I built the production system a
few months ago.

I don't think it would be any different than not restarting it after the

Hiya All,
I just finished upgrading perl on one of my machines and something
crossed my mind while it was busy compiling and reinstalling all of the
ports that depended on perl.
Will a port install fail if it cannot write to a file because it's in-use?
Also, is it necessary to restart the server

This is sort of pedantic for me to bring up, but I wouldn't count on the
install failing. Because Unix makes a

You need the dd sequence. And you need to do that on exported pool.
So, just to be clear, I need to boot off a USB key (which will then allow me to
write to ad8 and ad10, my two boot zpool devices), and then:

1. Having raw swap partition suitable for swapping/dumping.
2. Updating bootcode online without loosing uptime.
Just in expense of some kilobytes of disk space.
