Hi.

Tiny thing probably (or intentional?).

The upgrade instructions under 
https://www.openbsd.org/faq/upgrade79.html contains two syntax errors — 
specifically the LACP instruction:


     # ifconfig trunk0 | awk '/lladdr/ { print "lladdr $2" } > 
hostname.aggr0

It's missing a single quote, as well as not printing $2 due to being 
wrapped in double quotes.
It should most likely read:


     # ifconfig trunk0 | awk '/lladdr/ { print "lladdr " $2 }' > 
hostname.aggr0

Not sure how to submit a fix for this, so resorting to e-mail.

Have a great day,
