From 63cb445e514ab9149e6ee07329f1917474458cec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Warner Losh Date: Sat, 26 Oct 2002 06:25:11 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] A simple make world is too dangerous for most upgrades. Instead, copy the updating from stable section, and remove the kludge-o-rounds that are in there. Sometimes make world is safe, sometimes not. Let's document the safe way to deal. --- UPDATING | 16 ++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/UPDATING b/UPDATING index b5e6a31a9fe5..204cc7ce899b 100644 --- a/UPDATING +++ b/UPDATING @@ -1001,8 +1001,20 @@ COMMON ITEMS: To rebuild everything and install it on the current system. ----------------------------------------------------------- - make world - Build a new kernel, see above. + # Note: sometimes if you are running current you gotta do more than + # is listed here if you are upgrading from a really old current. + + [7] + make buildworld + make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE + make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE + [1] + [3] + mergemaster -p [5] + make installworld + mergemaster [4] + + To upgrade from 4.x-stable to current -------------------------------------
