By not using buildkernel it may have still compiled against the -PRERELEASE headers. I'm not sure how to fix you at this point ... If cpanel has hardcoded assumptions about the release name you may need to fake it out by hacking src/sys/conf/newvers.sh to rename it back to "5.3-STABLE" and then be caereful to repply the fix after every cvsup. However I'm not sure how to get your world back to a functional state without reinstalling... You should also file a bug with the cpanel folks and have them handle the name changes more gracefully. -- Doug White | FreeBSD: The Power to Serve dwhite@gumbysoft.com | www.FreeBSD.org
