Depending on the situation, for example. My firewall is at the other
side of the
house, without a keyboard/monitor.
Since the box doesn't have any other logged in users, I
normally build world in multi user mode. Doing so is taking a
chance with the success of the build world, but like I said,
it depends on the situation...
Thanks! So you can do everything in multiuser mode, or do you still
have to drop to single user mode to actually install the new kernel and
new system binaries?
I've done everything in multiuser mode on more than one occasion.
Also, does doing all of this bring me to the most recent stable release? (I noticed that 5.3 was released yesterday, presumably just after I downloaded 5.2.1).
You probably will have 5.3 sources if you used RELENG_5.3. _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
