When in doubt .. try it out :) >From the 'sysupgrade' man pages: -- If you wish to track minor stable releases, you may want to do something like this every time a new release is published: $ sysupgrade auto \ -- ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-6./$(uname -m) So .. in this case, I tried: 'sysupgrade auto ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-7.0.1/amd64' And it worked ..

Updating 7.0 to 7.0.1
I was checking how this might be accomplished, and it appears that one just needs to do: sysbuild build sysupgrade auto ~/sysbuild/release/$(uname -m) Is this correct? How does 'sysupgrade' know the version to which it's supposed to upgrade (i.e. 7.0.1 in this instance)? Graham Jenkins
