Would the following procedure work to do an inplace upgrade: 1. Download the amd64 iso 2. Install it on a spare disk/partition 3. Do a cvsup on it's /usr/src 4. Make buildworld/buildkernel 5. Mount the x86 disk/partition 6. Copy /usr/obj (and /usr/src for good measure) from the amd partition to the x48 7. Reboot with x86 partition 8. Make installkernel/installworld mergemaster on x86 partition 9. Now the non-ports section OS is amd64 10. pkg_del /var/db/pkg/*; rm -rf /usr/ports/ /usr/local 11. Reftp ports.tar.gz and rebuild all the ports (I have about 10 top level ports installed the rest are dependicies so this straight forward)
So does it work? _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
