 I always clean out /usr/obj.  You can also add the 2 new mergemaster
 calls using -p  -C options:
 
 cd /usr/obj
 chflags -R noschg *
 rm -rf *
 cd /usr/src
 mergemaster -p
 make buildworld
 make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
 make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
 
 shutdown -r now
 boot -s fsck -p
 mount -u /
 mount -a -t ufs
 swapon -a
 cd /usr/src
 make installworld
 mergemaster
 mergemaster -C

And, don't forget 'adjkerntz -i' before you 'make installworld' so
that you won't be installing files before they were built.

uname reports 4.6-STABLE not 4.6.2-STABLE?

2002-08-16 Thread Morgan Davis

Just made/installed world after a cvsup yesterday.

Is it normal for uname to not report the tertiary version number in the
STABLE branch?  It's been so long since we had a three digit release
revision I can't recall.

In the event it is normal, is there a way to determine the .2
maintenance level?  Even /usr/src/UPDATING doesn't seem to have a line
in there about the 4.6.2 RELEASE date.

Thanks for the explanation/reminder Brooks.

 4.6.2 is a snapshot of RELENG_4_6, the 4.6 security fix branch, not a
 snapshot of RELENG_4, the 4.x branch so if you track RELENG_4, you
won't
 ever run 4.6.2.
