Maybe the wrong list, but, this was from STABLE -> STABLE.

I have an old 32-bit machine that had 8.2-STABLE on it.

I tried to upgrade using 8.2 update

# freebsd.update upgrade -r 9.0
failed with the no more mirrors message
# env UNAME_r=8.2-RELEASE freebsd.update upgrade -r 9.0
failed with the no more mirrors message
I tried
# sed -i '' -e 's/=_/=%@_/' /usr/sbin/freebsd-update
# env UNAME_r=8.2-RELEASE freebsd.update upgrade -r 9.0
similar failure

I copied freebsd.update from my 9.0 amd64 system.

# env UNAME_r=8.2-RELEASE ./freebsd.update upgrade -r 9.0

Worked!

After following directions until update completed and updating ports
with portupgrade -a -PP, the 32-bit machine was running 9.0 with no
known problems.

I changed stable-supfile to
...
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_9
...

I updated the source tree, did the '11 step program' in
/usr/src/Makefile. All succeeded.

Hi Tom,

Is that a typo? I know freebsd-update not freebsd.update and that works only for REALEASE not STABLE. I always update STABLE with csup and make buildworld/installworld as in handbook.
