Any method to cross build and install to local box
Hello all: As I known FreeBSD has a function called cross-build, which can be build from architecture i386 to Architecture amd64 or wise versa. But I have freebsd 4.11 (it must be i386 arch.) installed on a AMD-64 mechine and upgraded to 5.4 and want upgrade to 6.0 stable then. Can I completely change the OS's arch. via the upgrade process (Not Clean Install) via the following make: make buildworld TARGET_ARCH=AMD64 make buildkernel TARGET_ARCH=AMD64 make installkernel TARGET_ARCH=AMD64 mergemaster -p reboot to single user mode make installworld TARGET_ARCH=AMD64 ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
