martin's Journal: FreeBSD fun - AKA RTFM

OK, so I've done many source level upgrades for FreeBSD.

Yesterday 5.2 popped out, so I cvsup-ped the source, followed the usual install set

cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/mergemaster
mergemaster.sh -p
cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make buildkernel=GENERIC
make installkernel=GENERIC
reboot
make installworld

and and splat on the csh/sh install.

and the install README says - do the kernel first then buildworld......aaaaaahhhhhhhhhh

OK so back to refresh the src tree and make buildworld. segfaults from make....ahh well restore make from tape or... ..back to downloading the ISO...

Think I'll download the ISO over lunchtime.. :-(
