FreeBSD 6.2用freebsd-update升级过程

09-12

FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE下用freebsd-update升级过程:

mail#uname -a

FreeBSD mail.extmail.org 6.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE #0: Fri Nov2 13:04:30 UTC 2007 [email protected]:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/kernel_IPFWi386

mail#freebsd-update fetch install

Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found.

Fetching public key from update1.FreeBSD.org... done.

Fetching metadata signature from update1.FreeBSD.org... done.

Fetching metadata index...done.

即可完成freebsd的bianary升级。

那为什么用uname看不出来呢?是因为uname反映的是内核级别的情况。只是执行freebsd-update是不触及系统内核的,但是系统确实已经得到了升级。那么,要想能从"uname -a"上反映出来,还需要接着执行下面的命令:

mail#cd /usr/src

mail#make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOURKERNEL

mail#make installkernel KERNCONF=YOURKERNEL

mail#reboot
