Hi,
I want to upgrade my system from RELENG_5_2_1_RELEASE to RELENG_5_3_RELEASE
I am using cvsup with this cvs-supfile
# Utilise le mirroir francais *default host=cvsup5.fr.FreeBSD.org
# Ne pas changer *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr
# Numero de version de FreeBSD *default tag=RELENG_5_2_1_RELEASE
# Ne pas changer *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress
# Met a jour src ports et docs src-all ports-all tag=. doc-all tag=.
From what I have understand the steps that I must take to upgrade properly will be :
1. Change the cvs-supfile to : *default release=RELENG_5_3_RELEASE
2. Run cvsup : /usr/local/bin/cvsup -L1 -h cvsup5.fr.FreeBSD.org /root/cvs-supfile
3. cd to /usr/src
4. # make -j4 buildworld 5. # make build kernel 6. # make installkernel 7. # boot -s (optional, please confirm) 8. # mergmaster -p 9. # make install world 10. # mergmaster 11. # shutdown -r now
Are these steps ok ?
Do I have to upgrade or clean my /usr/ports - knowing that it is updated twice a week on the 5_2_1_RELEASE ?
If so, how ?
Any pointer beside the Handbook ?
Thanks for your support.
