Ok I see. How do I update from 6.3 STABLE to 7.0 STABLE ? I imagine there is a tool for that? Short of down loading the iso files and doing it from discs. Don't know if there is a tool for this, but the usual way is to make a RELENG-7 supfile, csup the 7-STABLE sources and build them.

The tool freebsd-update may be used to update between releases (and release candidates) with binaries, but not between the development trees. -Steve ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
