Hello List, I'm trying to upgrade my system from 6_2 to 7_1 and cannot seem to do it. Perhaps I'm missing something. Here is the basic procedure I'm following.
#cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile /root/stand_sup #vi /root/stand_sup <<<host=CHANGE_ME.freebsd.org >>>host=cvsup15.us.FreeBSD.org <<<tag=RELENG_6_2 >>>tag=RELENG_7_1 #cd /usr/src #cvsup -g -L2 /root/stand_sup ... #make -j4 buildworld; make -j4 buildkernel; make installkernel ... (come back a hour or so later) #make installworld; reboot After system is back up log in as root and... # uname -a FreeBSD lazerus.box201.com 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #0: Fri Jan 12 11:05:30 UTC 2007 r...@dessler.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SMP i386 I cannot understand why this system will not upgrade. Even with the mergemaster -p commands added this system always boots to FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE. I've tried this in various ways about 20 times and slowly I'm corrupting the 6.2 build. I have the install disks but the Upgrade FreeBSD detects the /usr/src and refuses to over-write the directory. The make commands always finish perfectly. Would someone give this apparent noob a hand?
