If this is true, perhaps the "build" man page should be updated. Here's what the man page has to say on the topic: The ``approved'' method of updating your system from the latest sources is: make buildworld make buildkernel KERNCONF=FOO make installkernel KERNCONF=FOO make installworld mergemaster After running these commands a system reboot is required... This gives the impression that you're safe running all the builds without rebooting, especially as the word "approved" is used. Brent On Nov 13, 2003, at 11:18 PM, M.
