Hi,

I have a number of 9.0-R boxes, some of which I've updated in the past to 9.0-STABLE (as of the date they were done).

I'm looking at switching to 'freebsd-update' - is there an equivalent way to get it to update me to '-STABLE'?

i.e. If I run this on a 9.0-RELEASE box, I end up with 9.0-RELEASE-p4 (even though uname says '-p3' - it's apparently -p4.

I'm guessing that's not the same as if I'd csup'd to 9.0-STABLE on that day, and rebuilt the world?

I'd also guess freebsd-update will bring up some more queries / info if it has to merge any config files (I seem to have been lucky going from 9.0-R to 9.0-R-p4 nothings been displayed other than 'completed' - unless I'm doing something wrong :).

Also, does freebsd-update warn you if you need to reboot/rebuild anything (e.g. the kernel / userland or anything?)

Thanks,

-Karl
