Date: 23 Apr 1994 20:43:17 -0500 Organization: The University of Texas - Austin Lines: 15 Message-ID: <2pcirl$rf6@sylvester.cc.utexas.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: sylvester.cc.utexas.edu What is the least problematic route to upgrading NetBSD-0.9 to NetBSD-current? I have made several ``standard'' changes, including adding crypt support, but I have also upgraded many of the commands to newer versions, and removed a few commands as well (replacing passwd(1), for instance). I have made several changes to /usr/share, etc., and frankly, I'm not sure I'd remember all of the changes I've made. Suggestions? sup? Wait for 1.0? Get binaries? This is probably a FAQ, but, it's not in my FAQ, and I'm not sure what the location for the ``official'' NetBSD FAQ is (if there is one). I'd sure like some information on which FAQ to consult, due to their recent proliferation. -- Protect our endangered bandwidth - reply by email. NO BIG SIGS!
