Hi,
I'm going to try in to install FreeBSD 6.0-Beta3, and am curious how I
should tweak the stable-supfile. Actually I did an install from CD, I
usually immediately update from the net after a CD install, so I can get
the latest stuff.
When I installed 5.4 I made these changes to the stable-supfile:
nano -w stable-supfile
host = cvsup10.FreeBSD.org
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.
For 6.0-Beta3, I plan to only change to RELENG_6, like this:
nano -w stable-supfile
host = cvsup10.FreeBSD.org
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.
I thought I had read somewhere that I am not supposed to put the
ports-all and doc-all lines in to the stable-supfile for 6.0, but I
cannot find where I saw it. I think some guy got ports from RELENG_7,
or something like that (though I later read there is only set of ports).
Is it okay to put them in like this?
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.
Thanks!
(below are my instructions I usually try to follow)
cd /usr/src
cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile .
cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/refuse .
nano -w stable-supfile
host = cvsup10.FreeBSD.org
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.
cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile
