Hi:
I have installed FreeBSD 6.3 RELEASE via FTP to a Sager P8880 Notebook
computer I aquired cheap, and without an OS; 2.4ghz Pentium IV (desktop
unit) half gig memory, cd r/w 30gig hd, firewire lots of good stuff.
Installer set things up almost perfectly with all my favorite apps...

I have Claws-mail installed on my workstation. It's compiled here from
ports. I need to generate a statically-linked package, for
installation on an older install of FreeBSD. (6.1 RELEASE, but running
Xorg 6.9.0, I am running Xorg 7.3)
Can this be done?
If so, what's the general procedure.

Indeed. Thanks for the heads up. Guess I better subscribe to

I am currently running:
FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p20 #2
After reading the docs, it appears the procedure to upgrade from 6.1 to
6.2 is the following:
1) Change: default release=cvs tag=RELENG_6_1 to tag=RELENG_6_2
in /usr/local/etc/cvsup/cvsupfile
2) run cvsup /usr/local/etc/cvsup/cvsupfile to get

Wonderful; I can now look into and play with the RAID system without
taking the OS off-line and going to the bios.

WhenI was using Linux, I got used to running "free"; a quick nd dirty way to

write to it!
My fstab line is: /dev/fd0 /usr/home/bob/floppy ufs rw,noauto,u
