I'm trying to follow the instructions at <http://www.daemonology.net/freebsd-upgrade-5.4-to-6.0/>
At point four it offers this shell script.
cut -f 1 -d '$' /usr/local/freebsd-update/work/md5all | uniq |
        while read X; do
                if [ -f $X ]; then echo $X; fi;
        done | sort > /root/base-old

Running this from root shell in konsole (bash) I get "while: Expression Syntax". The various hints and clues I get from the shell, the web and man bash haven't helped me. Would someone provide the correct syntax for me?

thanks

malcolm
