Re: Howto: Mergemaster and Make World.
by Understudy on Sunday March 19, @10:30AM
The steps for FreeBSD 6 are similar but in a different order.
cvsup stable-supfile
make buildworld
make kernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE
mergemaster -p
make installworld
mergemaster -i
<reboot>
Hope that helps.

    thank you so much... I used your howto a lot for my v4 machines (after you linked it to me in an IRC chat) and I got a little lost when I tried to do it on my v6 and could not find a make.conf ;)).

    Thanks again!

    Pierre
