No mirrors remaining, giving up. > freebsd-version 10.2-RELEASE-p5 I don't understand. Why does freebsd-update consider the system as 10.2-STABLE? freebsd-version shows 10.2-RELEASE-p5, and this is a virtual machine cloned from another one which is 10.2-RELEASE-p5, freebsd-update works just fine on the original vm. Any help? Thanks Romu 2015-10-23 7:06 GMT+08:00 William A.
