Every message I see in the archives on these points is very simple:

"See /usr/src/UPDATING"

Unfortunately, my system has no /usr/src/UPDATING.

I have decided to go with a full net reinstall (rather than use cvsup) to
take me from 3.3 to 4.1.

I look forward to reading UPDATING when it lands on my system. Should make
great bedtime reading.

thanks
