I've been trying to get RE@ to embelish this script and commit it to
RELENG_5 to help with things like this:
$ cat /usr/src/upgrade4ot5.sh
#! /bin/sh
# Some people don't read hier(9) and symlink /tmp and /var/tmp,
# and /tmp can get cleared...
SENTINEL=/$(basename %0)
if [ ! -f ${SENTINEL}.kernel-done ]; then
make buildworld && make buildkernel
# install /boot/device.hints
make installkernel
# install new loader
touch ${SENTINEL}.kernel-done
reboot
else
mergemaster -p
make installworld
mergemaster -i
rm ${SENTINEL}.*
reboot
endif
