Hi

I have just successfully upgraded my server from FreeBSD 6.0 to 6.1 with a very easy to use script. Running the latest version of DA.

Please check out this website.

Why would you use this script instead of the standard

cvsup stable-supfile

cd /usr/src

mergemaster -p

make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=KERNNAME
make installworld
make installkernel KERNCONF=KERNNAME

mergemaster

reboot

?

because i typed sh upgrade.sh
that is all


instead of

cvsup stable-supfile

cd /usr/src

mergemaster -p

make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=KERNNAME
make installworld
make installkernel KERNCONF=KERNNAME

mergemaster

reboot
