A few things I've noticed: 1) When I compile a kernel from the RELENG_2_2 source tree, I get a 'FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE' kernel. 2) The top of... ftp://releng22.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2-970826-RELENG/RELNOTES.TXT ^^^^^^^^ ^^^ ^^^^^^ says... RELEASE NOTES FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE BRANCH 3) In 'stable-supfile' ... # The following line is for 2.1-stable. If you want 2.2-stable, change # "RELENG_2_1_0" to "RELENG_2_2". ---------------- So, although I have yet to read something to the effect of "the RELENG_2_2 branch IS FreeBSD-stable", it sure looks that way to me. Please correct me if I'm wrong. --- Ron
