13+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
14
15SEVERAL LOCALES RENAMED
16-----------------------
17
18Several locales were using obsolete and misleading names, and thus have
19been adjusted to current standards. Any users of the following locales
20need to select alternates:
21
22DFLY 4.2 locale            DFLY 4.4 alterative locale
23---------------            ------------------------------------
24mn_MN.UTF-8                mn_Cyrl_MN.UTF-8
25no_NO.UTF-8                nb_NO.UTF-8      or nn_NO.UTF-8

43+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
44
45BINUTILS 2.25 REPLACES 2.22, PRIMARY
46------------------------------------
47
48The oldest of the two versions of Binutils, version 2.22, was removed
49and replaced with Binutils 2.25.  It becomes the primary version version
50of binutils and version 2.24 becomes the alternate.  There are 8 current
51CVE written against 2.24, so for security reasons version 2.25 should
52always be used.
53
54The accepted values of BINUTILSVER are now "binutils225" (default) and
55"binutils224".  The building of Binutils 2.24 can be prevented by setting
56NO_ALTBINUTILS=yes in make.conf.
57
58LOADER OPTIONS CHANGED
59----------------------
60
61Right after the development branch started, the Fred art accompanying the
62loader menu was improved.  The line between Fred and the menu was removed
63by default (but can optionally be returned) and the placement shifted as
64a result.  The drawing was improved, and the colored version was improved,
65changing the eyes and wing color from white to red.  A new color version
66of Fred was added, one with a blue scheme.
67
68The loader menu defaults have changed since release 4.0:  The vertical
69line was removed, the loader is displayed in color by default*, and the
70blue scheme is used.
71
72The loader.conf changes are:
73loader_color:   option has been removed
74loader_plain:   option has been added, it changed menu to monochrome
75fred_is_red:    changes color scheme from blue to red
76fred_is_blue:   option existed only on 4.1, it has been removed
77fred_separated: Adds line between Fred and menu (as seen previously)
78
79* If loader.conf defines "console" as "comconsole" or "console" is defined
80  in the environment as "comconsole" then color will not be displayed,
81  even if loader_plain value is "NO".
82
83SENDMAIL REMOVED FROM BASE
84--------------------------
85
86The only Mail Transfer Agent provided now is DragonFly Mail Agent (dma).
87If the system being upgraded is still configured to use the sendmail
88binaries from base, the "make upgrade" command will fail.
89
90The administrator must change /etc/mail/mailer.conf to switch the
91mailwrapper to dma or a DPorts-based MTA prior to running the upgrade
92command that permanently removes sendmail executables and could
93potentially break a running mail server.
94
95Refer: http://www.dragonflybsd.com/docs/docs/newhandbook/mta/ for
96detailed instructions on how to configure the MTA selection.
97
98_KPOSIX_VERSION and P1003_1B OPTIONS REMOVED
99--------------------------------------------
100
101The _KPOSIX_VERSION and P1003_1B kernel options have been changed to
102no-ops. They can be removed from custom kernel configurations.
103
104SOUND SYSTEM UPDATED FROM FreeBSD 11-CURRENT
105--------------------------------------------
106
107Many more sound devices may be detected.
108
109If the default device choosen isn't to your liking, setting the sysctl
110hw.snd.default_unit to a different number will change it.
111
112SCTP SUPPORT DROPPED
113--------------------
114
115Support for the SCTP protocol has been removed.
116
117OLD USB DRIVERS REMOVED
118-----------------------
119
120The old USB stack, along with the kernel config option "device oldusb"
121and the make.conf variable "WANT_OLDUSB" have been removed. This means
122that for custom kernel configuration files which were derived from a
123GENERIC or X86_64_GENERIC file prior to making the usb4bsd stack default,
124various (old USB stack specific) devices will now complain about being
125unknown:
126
127  * oldusb	(obviously)
128  * natausb	(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
129  * rue		(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
130  * ugen	(no longer needed in usb4bsd)
131  * urio	(not yet ported to usb4bsd)
132  * uscanner	(no longer needed in usb4bsd)
133
134They should be removed or commented out in such custom kernel configs.
135
136GCC 5
137-----
138
139The GCC 4.4 compiler has been retired.  It has been replaced by a GCC 5.1.
140The following make.conf variables no longer work: NO_GCC44, NO_OBJC, and
141NO_CXX.  The latter was never documented and the latest versions of GCC are
142partially written in C++ so a C++ compiler is no longer optional.  In
143practical terms it has not been optional for many years as other base
144components are also written in C++.  The resource savings by avoiding
145building Objective-C compiler is so small, the complexity added by NO_OBJC
146internally was deemed a bad tradeoff so that is the reason for its removal.
147Also note that no "info" pages are installed with GCC 5.  After this entry
148was originally written, all info pages were removed from DragonFly.
149
150GCC 5.1 has been designated as the primary compiler.  As such, there is a
151new make.conf variable, NO_ALTCOMPILER.  It will block the rebuilding of
152the designated secondary compiler, GCC 4.7.  However, while DPorts
153primarily uses GCC 5 to build ports now, it still uses GCC 4.7 as well, so
154if building ports from source is desired, don't block building of the
155secondary compiler.
156
157+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
158+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.8 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
159+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
160
161SMP AND DEVICE_POLLING OPTIONS MADE UNKNOWN
162-------------------------------------------
163
164DEVICE_POLLING was replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE and the former SMP code is
165the default now (even on single-core systems), both for, like, 21 months.
166We kept the options around as no-ops as a convenience, to allow people
167using the same config for the then current release and the then current
168master. That period is now over, so any configs still having those
169options have to be adjusted.
170
171SYSVIPC SYSCALLS MADE NON-OPTIONAL
172----------------------------------
173
174The code related to the SYSVMSG, SYSVSEM and SYSVSHM kernel options is
175now compiled in by default. The options are no-ops for now.
176
177DEFAULT DRIVER CHANGED FOR LSI "THUNDERBOLT" SERIES RAID CONTROLLERS
178--------------------------------------------------------------------
179
180The default driver for those controllers is now mrsas(4) due to reports
181of file system corruption using the mfi(4) driver. The whole issue (and
182how to deal with potential problems when switching) was explained here:
183
184http://lists.dragonflybsd.org/pipermail/users/2014-July/128703.html
185
186A tunable is provided for letting those controllers still attach via
187the mfi(4) driver, hw.mrsas.mfi_enable (see mrsas(4) manual page).
188
189OLDER NETWORK DRIVERS MOVED TO I386 ONLY
190----------------------------------------
191
192The following drivers have been made i386 only: ed(4), sr(4), ng_sync_ar
193and ng_sync_sr. ed(4) used to be in X86_64_GENERIC, so it has to be
194removed in kernel configs derived from X86_64_GENERIC.
195
196+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
197+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.6 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
198+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
199
200UPDATE FROM MOST RECENT 3.6
201---------------------------
202
203Versions of 3.6 built before June 25th have a bug where installworld might
204crash during installation of the new initrd.  Upgrade to the latest version
205of 3.6 before updating to 3.8 or later.
206
207ATM, IPX, NCP AND NWFS SUPPORT DROPPED
208--------------------------------------
209
210Support for the IPX and NCP network protocols and for mouting NetWare
211file systems has been dropped. Dito for ATM protocol support.
212
213INITRD IMAGES NOW INSTALLED BY DEFAULT
214--------------------------------------
215
216An initial ramdisk image is now installed in /boot/kernel/initrd.img.gz
217
218Older images installed under the file name of initrd.img will be removed
219automatically by the make upgrade process.
220
221USB4BSD IS NOW THE DEFAULT USB STACK
222------------------------------------
223
224To get back to the old stack, put "WANT_OLDUSB=yes" in /etc/make.conf and
225replace "device usb" with "device oldusb" in the kernel configuration.
226
227MORE ISA SUPPORT DROPPED
228------------------------
229
230ISA support has been dropped from the following drivers: adv(4), an(4),
231ar(4), cs(4), digi(4), ed(4), ep(4), ex(4), fe(4), lnc(4), sbni(4),
232si(4), sn(4), and stg(4).

236+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
237
238ABI CHANGE
239----------
240
241Installed third-party software (dports) will have to be rebuilt after upgrade,
242or reinstalled from binary packages.
243
244UPDATING FROM 3.4 TO 3.6
245------------------------
246
247This only applies for this specific upgrade due to locale changes; it is
248not needed for upgrades after 3.6.  Please update in this order:
249
250make buildworld
251make buildkernel
252make installworld
253make installkernel
254*reboot*
255make upgrade
256
257See this mailing list post for details:
258http://lists.dragonflybsd.org/pipermail/users/2013-September/090163.html
259
260CYRIX OPTIONS REMOVED
261---------------------
262
263The following Cyrix related options have been removed: CPU_BTB_EN,
264CPU_CYRIX_NO_LOCK, CPU_DIRECT_MAPPED_CACHE, CPU_DISABLE_5X86_LSSER,
265CPU_FASTER_5X86_FPU, CPU_IORT, CPU_LOOP_EN, CPU_RSTK_EN, CPU_SUSP_HLT,
266CYRIX_CACHE_WORKS, and CYRIX_CACHE_REALLY_WORKS
267
268ISA SUPPORT REMOVED FROM RP(4)
269------------------------------
270
271ISA support has been removed from the rp(4) driver. It is now PCI only.
272
273+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
274+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.2 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
275+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
276
277COMPAT_SUNOS OPTION REMOVED
278---------------------------
279
280The COMPAT_SUNOS option has been removed. It was meant to provide binary
281compatibility with SunOS 4.x for the sparc32 port of 4.4BSD.
282
283ISA SOUND CARD SUPPORT REMOVED
284------------------------------
285
286The following modules have been removed (all for ISA sound cards):
287snd_ad1816.ko, snd_ess.ko, snd_mss.ko, snd_sb8.ko, snd_sb16.ko, snd_sbc.ko
288
289GCC 4.7
290-------
291
292DragonFly has switched base compilers.  GCC 4.7 is now the default
293compiler and GCC 4.4 is the alternative compiler.  The "NO_GCC47" make
294variable ceases to work now.
295
296Users who wish to build only GCC 4.7 have to use NO_GCC44 in the
297/etc/make.conf to prohibit GCC 4.4 from building.  However, using it is
298highly discouraged.  There are a few packages in pkgsrc that do not build
299with GCC 4.7 and the new "DPorts" system uses GCC 4.4 by default.  At
300this time, it is recommended to keep both compilers on the base system.
301
302SMP OPTION REMOVED
303------------------
304
305The SMP kernel option has been made a no-op. All kernels now feature SMP
306support. If you have 'options SMP' in your kernel config, you can as well
307remove it.
308
309DEVICE_POLLING OPTION REPLACED BY IFPOLL_ENABLE OPTION, KTR_POLLING REMOVED
310---------------------------------------------------------------------------
311
312The DEVICE_POLLING kernel option has been made a no-op and it has been
313replaced by IFPOLL_ENABLE.  If you have 'options DEVICE_POLLING' in your
314kernel config, you need to change it to IFPOLL_ENABLE.
315
316Also, the KTR_POLLING kernel option has been removed, so it must be
317removed from kernel configs that have it.
318
319BUSLOGIC, CYCLADES AND STALLION ISA SUPPORT REMOVED
320---------------------------------------------------
321
322The bt(4) driver for Buslogic SCSI adapters has been made PCI only. ISA
323cards will no longer be detected.
324
325The same has been done for Stallion multiport serial controllers. stli(4)
326has been completely removed (along with the stlload(8) and stlstty(8)
327utilities) and stl(4) was changed to support only PCI cards. Similarly,
328ISA support was removed from cy(4) too. All these drivers are i386 only.
329
330COMPAT_OLDISA OPTION GONE
331-------------------------
332
333The i386 specific COMPAT_OLDISA kernel option has been removed, since
334nothing needs it anymore.
335
336+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
337+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 3.0 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
338+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
339
340APIC_IO OPTION REMOVED
341----------------------
342
343The APIC_IO kernel option is no longer accepted after having been without
344effect for a while. The hw.ioapic_enable tunable now serves its purpose.
345If you have 'options APIC_IO' in your kernel config, you'll have to
346remove it.
347
348WATCHDOG_ENABLE & HW_WDOG OPTIONS REMOVED
349-----------------------------------------
350
351The wdog framework is now compiled into our kernels by default, so the
352options are no longer needed.
353
354DOSCMD(1) REMOVED
355-----------------
356
357doscmd(1) has been removed. It was i386 only. The doscmd(1) specific
358NO_X make.conf option was removed too.
359
360GCC 4.7
361-------
362
363GCC 4.7 has been brought in and replaces GCC 4.1 as DragonFly's non-
364default compiler in base (default is still GCC 4.4).
365
366Users who wish to build only GCC 4.4 have to replace NO_GCC41 with
367NO_GCC47 in /etc/make.conf.
368
369USB4BSD
370-------
371
372A new USB stack (from FreeBSD) has been brought in. The following
373modules have been ported so far: usb, uhci, ohci, ehci, xhci, umass,
374usfs, uether, if_axe, if_udav, ukbd, ums, uep, uhid, usb_quirk,
375and uaudio.
376
377It is not yet the default. To activate it, WANT_USB4BSD=yes has to
378be put in make.conf and device "usb4bsd" (quotes needed) has to
379replace device usb in the kernel config. After that, a full
380build/install/upgrade cycle is needed.
381
382Note that this is experimental and incomplete, but we are interested
383in hearing about issues with it, of course.
384
385ISA SUPPORT REMOVED FROM AIC-6260/6360 DRIVER
386---------------------------------------------
387
388ISA adapter support was dropped from the aic(4) driver.
389
390+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
391+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 2.10 TO LATER VERSIONS               +
392+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
393
394SEVERAL ISA DRIVERS REMOVED
395---------------------------
396
397The following ISA only drivers have been removed along with a couple of
398associated userland tools:
399
400aha(4)
401asc(4) & sasc(1)
402ctx
403dgb(4)
404el(4)
405gpib
406gsc(4) & sgsc(1)
407ie(4)
408labpc(4)
409le(4)
410mse(4)
411rc(4)
412rdp(4)
413spigot
414tw(4) & xten(1) & xtend(8)
415wl(4) & wlconfig(8)
416wt(4)
417
418Note that two of these drivers (aha(4) and ie(4)) are in our GENERIC
419config and one (aha(4)) is in our X86_64_GENERIC kernel configuration
420file.
421
422If buildkernel complains about any of these drivers, just remove them
423from your kernel configuration.
424
425BINUTILS 2.20
426-------------
427Binutils 2.20 has been removed in favor of Binutils 2.22.  The accepted
428values of BINUTILSVERS are now binutils221 and binutils222 (default).
429
430BUILDWORLD/-KERNEL PARALLELIZATION WORK
431---------------------------------------
432Due to changes in the way we build with more than one make job, you
433will have to update install(1) and mkdir(1) prior to buildworld if you
434want to build with 'make -j':
435
436cd /usr/src/usr.bin/xinstall; make; make install; make clean
437cd /usr/src/bin/mkdir; make; make install; make clean
438
439DMA(8) UPGRADE
440--------------
441dma(8) has been upgraded to v0.7 which no longer supports the
442/etc/dma/virtusertable. Some of its functionality has been replaced
443with the MASQUERADE keyword and the EMAIL environment variable (see
444the dma(8) manual page).
445
446+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
447+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 2.8 TO LATER VERSIONS                +
448+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
449
450GCC 4.4 & BINUTILS 2.21
451-----------------------
452
453GCC 4.4 has been made DragonFly's default compiler and Binutils 2.21 has
454been made DragonFly's default Binutils.
455
456That means that any settings that set CCVER to 'gcc44' are not needed
457anymore. Instead, CCVER can be set to 'gcc41' to go back to using
458GCC 4.1.
459
460It also means that 'binutils221' as a value for BINUTILSVER has no
461effect anymore. 2.17 has been removed and 'binutils220' is available
462as an option.
463
464The NO_GCC44 option has been removed and will not affect the build
465anymore. There is now a NO_GCC41 option that will prevent GCC 4.1 from
466building in a similar fashion.
467
468Note that you must do a full buildworld/buildkernel for upgrading.
469
470pkg_radd settings
471-----------------
472
473The config file for pkg_radd has moved from /etc/settings.conf to
474/etc/pkg_radd.conf.  Save the contents of settings.conf before upgrading
475if this is needed.  This warning only applies if /etc/settings.conf
476exists.  pkg_radd will continue to work with defaults.
477
478+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+

480+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY FROM 2.6 to 2.8 or HEAD			+
481+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
482
483OpenSSL
484--------
485
486OpenSSL has been upgraded, and SHLIB_MAJOR was bumped for libssh and libcrypto.
487This shouldn't break any 3rd-party software, but you'll need to recompile your
4883rd-party software if you want it to link against the new version of OpenSSL.
489
490Loader
491-------
492
493A new loader (dloader) has been added which better handles booting from
494multiple kernel/module versions.
495
496To upgrade (Only for this upgrade, for post 2.8 upgrades see GENERAL below)
497
498	cd /usr/src
499	make buildworld
500	make installworld
501	make upgrade
502	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
503	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
504
505Note that you must installworld and run the 'upgrade' target before
506installing the new kernel.
507
508BIND
509-----
510
511BIND has been removed from the base system.  The ldns and drill tools have
512been added for basic functionality.  Use 'drill' where you would normally
513use nslookup or dig, or install BIND from pkgsrc.  It's available as
514net/bind95, net/bind96, or net/bind97 as of this writing.
515
516This only affects older systems upgrading to 2.8.  New 2.8+ installs
517include BIND as a pkgsrc package.

520+         UPGRADING DRAGONFLY ON AN EXISTING DRAGONFLY SYSTEM		+
521+				GENERAL					+
522+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
523
524Instructions on how to obtain and maintain DragonFly source code using git
525are in the development(7) manual page.
526
527To upgrade a DragonFly system from sources you run the following sequence:
528
529	cd /usr/src
530	make buildworld
531	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
532	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
533	make installworld
534
535You will also want to run the 'upgrade' target to upgrade your /etc and the
536rest of your system.  The upgrade target is aware of stale files created by
537older DragonFly installations and should delete them automatically.
538
539	make upgrade
540
541See the build(7) manual page for further information.
542
543Once you've done a full build of the world and kernel you can do incremental
544upgrades of either by using the 'quickworld' and 'quickkernel' targets
545instead of 'buildworld' and 'buildkernel'.  If you have any problems with
546the quick targets, try updating your repo first, and then a full buildworld
547and buildkernel as shown above, before asking for help.

550+         UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 2.0 TO DRAGONFLY >= 2.1		+
551+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
552
553In 2.1 kernel and modules has moved to boot directory.  For most cases
554this is handled automatically by 'make upgrade'.  A few cases needs manual
555intervention:
556
557 * When installing a kernel without first doing a make buildworld,
558   installworld and upgrade to the same DESTDIR as kernel:
559   make DESTDIR/boot directory and move kernel and modules into this boot
560   directory; also move kernel.old and modules.old.
561   Typical example is vkernel(7), use (no modules used):
562
563	cd /var/vkernel
564	mkdir boot
565	chflags noschg kernel
566	mv kernel kernel.old boot
567	chflags schg boot/kernel
568
569 * When using a boot-only partition, /boot/loader.rc needs to be edited:
570   delete occurrences of '/boot/'.
571   These occurences can normally be deleted in any case, see loader(8).
572
573+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
574+         UPGRADING FROM DRAGONFLY <= 1.8 TO DRAGONFLY >= 1.9		+
575+-----------------------------------------------------------------------+
576
577In 1.9 major changes to the disk management infrastructure have taken
578place.  make upgrade may not catch all of your disk devices in /dev,
579so after upgrading be sure to cd /dev; ./MAKEDEV <blah> where <blah>
580are all of your disk devices.  HOWEVER, from late 2.3 on we run devfs
581and MAKEDEV no longer exists.
582
583The biggest changes in 1.9 are:
584
585(1) That whole-slice devices such as da0s1 no longer share the same device
586    id as partition c devices such as da0s1c.
587
588(2) The whole-disk device (e.g. da0) is full raw access to the disk,
589    with no snooping or reserved sectors.  Consequently you cannot run
590    disklabel on this device.  Instead you must run disklabel on a
591    whole-slice device.
592
593(3) The 'compatibility' partitions now use slice 0 in the device name,
594    so instead of da0a you must specify da0s0a.  Also, as per (1) above,
595    accessing the disklabel for the compatibility partitions must be
596    done via slice 0 (da0s0).
597
598(4) Many device drivers that used to fake up labels, such as CD, ACD, VN,
599    and CCD now run through the disk management layer and are assigned
600    real disk management devices.   VN and CCD in particular do not usually
601    use a MBR and disklabels must be accessed through the compatibility
602    slice 0.  Your /etc/ccd.conf file still specifies 'ccd0', though, you
603    don't name it 'ccd0s0' in the config file.
604
605Generally speaking, you have to get used to running fdisk and disklabel on
606the correctly specified device names.  A lot of the wiggle, such as running
607disklabel on a partition, has been removed.

613> Kerberos IV
614-------------
615
616Kerberos IV (eBones) was removed from the tree, please consider moving to
617Kerberos 5 (Heimdal).
618
619> Package Management System
620---------------------------
621
622Starting with the 1.4 release, DragonFly uses NetBSD's pkgsrc package
623management system.  The necessary tools to build and maintain packages
624are provided in /usr/pkg/bin and /usr/pkg/sbin.  Make sure that these
625directories are in your PATH variable.
626
627In order to obtain a reasonably current snapshot of the pkgsrc tree, use
628the tarball from NetBSD:
629
630	fetch -o /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/pkgsrc.tar.gz
631	cd /usr; tar -xzf /tmp/pkgsrc.tar.gz; chown -R root:wheel pkgsrc
632
633This tree can then be kept up to date with cvs update:
634
635	cd /usr/pkgsrc; cvs up
636
637NOTE! If you upgraded from a pre-1.4 system to 1.4 or later, you need to
638build and install the pkgsrc bootstrap manually:
639
640	cd /usr/pkgsrc/bootstrap
641	./bootstrap --pkgdbdir /var/db/pkg --prefix /usr/pkg

648
649The compatibility shims for the build environment have been removed, you
650have to update to DragonFly 1.2 release branch first.
651
652The default PAM configuration has moved from /etc/pam.conf to /etc/pam.d/.
653The existing configuration can be converted using /etc/pam.d/convert.sh.
654Entries in /etc/pam.d/ override entries in /etc/pam.conf. In addition
655the pam_skey.so module was retired, you have to remove it manually from
656your configuration, when you convert it.
657
658> Required user and group IDs when upgrading from either FreeBSD or DragonFly
659---------------------
660
661The following users may be missing from your password file.  Use vipw and
662add any that are missing:

664smmsp:*:25:25::0:0:Sendmail Submission User:/var/spool/clientmqueue:/sbin/nologin
665_pflogd:*:64:64::0:0:pflogd privsep user:/var/empty:/sbin/nologin

672_pflogd:*:64:

674
675> Upgrading to DragonFly from FreeBSD
676---------------------
677
678You can build the DragonFly world and DragonFly kernels on a FreeBSD-4.x or
679FreeBSD-5.x machine and then install DragonFly over FreeBSD, replacing
680FreeBSD.  Note that the DragonFly buildworld target does not try to reuse
681make depend information, it starts from scratch, so no pre-cleaning of the
682object hierarchy is necessary.
683
684	# get the CVS repository (it is placed in /home/dcvs, 500MB).
685	# Please use the -h option and a mirror site to pull the
686	# initial repository, but feel free to use the main repository
687	# machine to pull updates.
688	cvsup /usr/share/examples/cvsup/DragonFly-cvs-supfile
689	# install the source from the CVS hierarchy (remove preexisting
690	# FreeBSD src first) (500MB)
691	cd /usr
692	rm -rf src
693	cvs -R -d /home/dcvs checkout -P src
694
695	# build it (500MB used in /usr/obj)
696	#
697	cd /usr/src
698	make buildworld
699	make buildkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
700
701Once you have built DragonFly you have to install it over FreeBSD.  Since
702DragonFly does not track changes made by FreeBSD to its include file
703hierarchy and include file pollution can cause all sorts of unexpected
704compilation issues to come up, it is best to wipe your include hierarchy
705prior to installing DragonFly.  Note that you should not wipe any installed
706FreeBSD header files or binaries until after you have successfully completed
707the build steps above.
708
709	rm -rf /usr/include
710	mkdir /usr/include
711	make installkernel KERNCONF=<KERNELNAME>
712	make installworld
713
714Then you need to upgrade your system.  DragonFly's 'make upgrade' target
715will unconditionally upgrade the /etc files that sysops do not usually
716mess around with, such as the files in /etc/rc.d.  It will also remove any
717obsolete files such as utilities and manpages that have been removed from
718the system since the version you're coming from.  If you are unsure we
719recommend that you make a backup of at least your /etc before applying
720this step.  Note that DragonFly's RC system is basically RCNG from
721FreeBSD-5, but there are some differences in the contents of the RC files.
722
723	make upgrade
724
725NOTE! Never do a 'make upgrade' before 'make installworld' has been run.
726Doing so might leave your system in an unusable state.
727
728Finally we recommend that you do an 'ls -lta BLAH' for /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin,
729/usr/bin, and /usr/lib, and remove any stale files that you find.  Please
730report these files to the DragonFly developers so that they can be added to
731the 'upgrade' target.
