18.4. Using make world to rebuild your system

Contributed by Nik Clayton <nik@FreeBSD.ORG>.

Once you have synchronised your local source tree against a particular version of FreeBSD (stable, current and so on) you must then use the source tree to rebuild the system.

Currently, the best source of information on how to do that is a tutorial available from http://www.nothing-going-on.demon.co.uk/FreeBSD/make-world/make-world.html.

A successor to this tutorial will be integrated into the handbook.
