I was doing a 'portupgrade -arR' and it was running for around 10 hours or so when my 3 yr. old grandchild somehow rebooted the computer.

What type of problems will this create? Can I rerun the portupgrade command and will it start where it was aborted?

What is the best recourse for me to do to make sure no problems down the road?

Thnx.

Assuming the system fsck'ed it self, you should be fine just to rerun portsupgrade. At least Ive never had any problems when restarting it, but Your Milage May Vary,

Well it's done and this is what I got:

Packages Processed: 17 done, 134 ignored, 6 skipped & 1 failed.

This is a fresh FTP installed and would those results be normal?

Thnx.

Depends on why the one failed and the 6 skipped...
Some times lsof will fail for me for example, because I cant fetch the package. So I have to google for the package, and manually put it in /usr/ports/distfiles

More than likly, the 1 failed and the other 6 depended on it...

I just did a new portupgrade using a different cvsup site and each time I do portupgrade, when it get to 'gnomevfs-2.8.x file, I receive this message

"local modification time does not match remote"

Then it try a few different download sites and then seems to stop and display the, "6 skipped & 1 failed." message.

What is causing this and how can I fix it?

Thnx.

Have you tried updating your ports tree?

[GhostDawg]

I did do 'cvsup -g -L 2 /port-supfile' command and I chose a different cvsup site to use the second time. Isn't this updating the ports tree?

Thnx.
