Hi, I'd like to try some sort of "Live Upgrade".
Given: -STABLE box with an extra disk. Intended procedure: - Install 5.2.1-RELEASE (given it works on that box) on the extra disk - Adapt configuration from -STABLE - shutdown - change -STABLE disk with 5.2.1 disk - boot and run 5.2.1 - optionally update to 5-CURRENT Is this a feasable procedure? How would I best install the 5.2.1 on the extra disk. I thought I'd just extract the -release tarballs using the install.sh script? However there is also mtree information, and of course the extra disk is not mounted on / but on /mnt What do I else need to think of? I know that I probably cannot create UFS2 filesystems with the -stable system. But I guess I can run UFS(1) as well until I move each filesystem to UFS2 using the (now spare) old -stable system disk. Maybe someone has already done such a thing? Thanks & best regards, Daniel -- IRCnet: Mr-Spock - Eddie would go! - Daniel Lang * [EMAIL PROTECTED] * +49 89 289 18532 * http://www.leo.org/~dl/
