I prefer to have a specific release and make upgrades a little more carefully. I'll be looking through the RELENG_5_4 release notes over the next few days and probably upgrading this weekend. Right now, I'm running RELENG_5_3 (RELEASE-p3). This was built back in January, and I've had kernel panicks when trying the ehci driver. If it's fixed in 5.4, and there are no 5.3 -> 5.4 upgrade gotchas, that's probably good enough for me. If I find any gotchas in the notes, I'll see if a newer 5.3 code base fixes it. Thanks.
