Hello,
Can I install FREESBEE 1.1 and then upgrade from the installed
FreeBSD 5.3 to 5.4 using the Release CD.
Hi there,
I wouldn't think so 'cos FreeSBIE is based on FreeBSD 6.X.
FreeSBIE is based on FreeBSD 5.3. Their last release was on December 6,
2004 (5.3 came out in November), so it can't be 6.X.
If you want 5.3 or 5.4 then why not just do a normal installation ??
From their FAQ:
-------------------
Is there a way to install FreeSBIE on my HD ?
Yes ! Since FreeSBIE 1.1 it's possible to use the BSDInstaller to
install FreeSBIE on your hard drive, and then turn it into FreeBSD
5.3-STABLE by means of cvsup
-------------------
But I would do what Gavin said and do a real install of 5.4. It's really
not hard. :)
Huge apologies for giving you the wrong info there Mark, I was thinking
of another live distro.
FreeSBIE is pretty cool though.
I looked at that FAQ now and it says you can upgrade to 5.3 by using ports.
Do you know how the ports collection works?
I think the ports is the best way of managed packaged and programs that
I have ever seen.
Maybe you can do as you were wanting to.
Once again, sorry for the mis-information.
Regards,
Gavin
