It failed to update expat however, because it kept looking in the 6.0-RELEASE paths. I presume this is because even though the binary upgrade of the base to 6.1 went well, uname, etc., think I still have a 6.0 machine. So where is the *real* version id stored and how can it be (should it be?) safely modified?

It's reported by the kernel, so if it's still saying 6.0-RELEASE then
that's what you're still running.

I don't have access to the system right now, but after the sysinstall I looked at some of the files in /bin and saw that most had a date of May 6, 2006 (or thereabouts) so I assumed that meant the binary upgrade had been successful. How can I verify that the actual kernel was upgraded? Also, I haven't been able to locate much information about a binary upgrade in the Handbook. The only reference was in the INSTALL.htm in the release directory.
