I didn't get any response on my original post, so I figured I'd 'summarize' it better. Bottom line is I'm having SMP problems under 6.1-STABLE-200608 and suspect it's a problem with 6.1 that may have been addressed in 6.2... Here are my questions: I'm concerned about doing a binary upgrade to 6.2 won't fix the problem, and I've tried using freebsd-update, but it complains about the version not being compatible. Is there a way to 'force' the ID of the system to be 6.1-RELEASE so that freebsd-update will work? If I do a binary upgrade from CD, will it also update the kernel sources so I can build a new one? Will it complain about it not being compatible like freebsd-update? Will doing the 6.1-6.2 binary upgrade as posted by Colin (the author of freebsd-update) also update the kernel sources? Any help/recomendation would be appreciated.
