Oh very good, thank you. (I misunderstood what UNAME_r means; now I see the correlation to "uname -r".) For any onlookers, the following worked for me: env UNAME_r=10.0-RELEASE freebsd-update -b /j/test -r 10.1 upgrade # work through merging etc env UNAME_r=10.0-RELEASE freebsd-update -b /j/test -r 10.1 install # ignore the message to reboot and repeat the last until you see "done". - Leif -- As implied by email protocols, the information in this message is not confidential.
