1. Has anyone found a good review of DragonflyBSD v5.0?

   I’d be interested in reading it.

2. Nice, could you update http://www.dragonflybsd.org front page, it still says 5.0.0, thanks. Trying to do it myself just gives message that it is locked, guess it is to limit scam.

3. I run 5.0.0. How can i update to 5.0.1?

4. Thomas – updated.

5. Upgrading is almost always the same procedure.

   If it’s the same main release:

   cd /usr/src
   git pull
   make buildkernel
   make buildworld
   make installkernel
   make installworld
   make upgrade
   reboot

   ( after reboot if all is well )

   cd /usr/src
   make rescue

   If moving to a new release:

   cd /usr/src
   git pull
   git checkout DragonFly_RELEASE_$MAJOR_$MINOR
   make buildkernel
   make buildworld
   make installkernel
   make installworld
   make upgrade
   reboot

   ( after reboot if all is well )

   cd /usr/src
   make rescue

6. Actually it’s

   make buildworld
   make buildkernel
   make installkernel
   make installworld
   make upgrade
   reboot

   (note buildworld comes first)

7. So has anyone found a thorough review of Dfly 5.0 for us noobs to read?
