You have to re-build the source now, to build the = 4.2=20 kernel.
These were the instructions I was = givin when I=20 upgraded to 4.2

1) use cvsup to grab the 4.2-R source=20 (tag=3DRELENG_4_2_0_RELEASE)
2) cd = /usr/src=20
3) make world
4) edit = kernel=20 configuration file
5) make buildkernel=20 KERNEL=3D<insert kernel config name here>
6) make=20 installkernel
7) manually upgrade the files = in /etc or=20 use mergemaster
8) reboot

I'm assuming you can skip 1) because your source = tree is=20 already current.

I did a system upgrade from 4.1-release yesterday = using=20 /stand/sysinstall
(yes, I know you can do it = w/ a=20 make-world, but I don't need the _latest_
stuff, just=20 more recent than 4.1)....

After the upgrade, the uname-a didn't show anything=20 different... Is this
normal? Shouldn't it = have read=20 4.2-release?

Thanks!
