[comp.sys.next] Using a NeXT_2.1_Ext disk to update 2.0 Ext system

escc1@jetson.uh.edu (Chambers, Charles) (04/27/91)

Can any one please send a list of files that are changed between 2.0
and 2.1 extended? I have a copy of a 2.1 Extended Optical, but it does
not have a 2.0-to-2.1 Update script on it. I have asked NeXT for a list
repeatedly, adn get a "buy the upgrade disks" answer from them. Well,
I have a 2.1 extended optical now, and a 2.1 update disk could take over
a month to get ordered and then received. My users are running into problem
in regards to the atan problem, so an immediate update would be best.

If any one has a program/script to compare two file systems and report 
differences between files, I'd be interested (yes I know about diff, but it
prints a list of differences of the files files). Something that generated
a list of checksums of all the files would work best. Then I could just 
compare the two lists.
-Thanks.
