Date: Wed, 30 Apr 1997 11:03:16 GMT Organization: Werple Internet, Melbourne Lines: 28 Message-ID: <3367238e.88066746@news.mira.net.au> NNTP-Posting-Host: dp-m-f110.werple.net.au Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Newsreader: Forte Agent 1.0/32.390 Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:40017 I just received my 2.2.1 CDROM and installed it. I would like to keep up to date with the sources via CTM. I am trying to follow the instructions in the "src-2.2-ctm-readme" file that I obtained from ftp.freebsd.org. I have the following problems: - The file seems to contradict itself. It says: For the 2.2.0 RELEASE echo "src-2.2 210" >src/.ctm_status ***** For the 2.2.1 RELEASE echo "src-2.2 217" >src/.ctm_status but then says ***** For 2.2.1 RELEASE, you will start with src-2.2.0210.gz Surely that should be "src-2.2.0217.gz" - Shouldn't you start with the update AFTER the last one applied i.e. src-2.2.0218.gz instead of 217. (Not that it will matter as CTM will ignore 217 anyway). - No matter whether I start with update 210, 211, 217, or 218, (after setting the update number in .ctm_status accordingly) I get an "md5 mismatch". Can anybody please tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thanks, Graham
