What I meant was that I found no tags of the form "DragonFly_Preview_<version>". Hence when I go to cvsup the sources, I can't get exactly those sources that built the preview CD. Simon Schubert thankfully explains why: Simon Schubert <Simon> writes: >> 1) How do I get 1.3.4 source? This would be the source code to what is >> on the Preview CD I was invited to try by the Wiki.

Hmm, a humble request? If you say "<x> is in the wiki", can you provide a URL to that wiki page? :) I put "cvs tags" in the search engine and I got: http://wiki.dragonflybsd.org/index.php/Building_Patches ...which isn't what I was looking for. > If not somebody will do so shortly. Putting it into docbook is a > very good idea! By "documentation" I meant "the handbook". It sure looks like the handbook is written from some sort of docbook source: ( From: http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~justin/handbook/cvs-tags.html ) ... <meta name="GENERATOR" content="Modular DocBook HTML Stylesheet Version 1.7" /> ... ------ Dave Hayes - Consultant - Altadena CA, USA - [EMAIL PROTECTED] >>> The opinions expressed above are entirely my own <<< A path and a gateway have no meaning or use once the objective is in sight.
