Hi,

I completed my first update (upgrade?) of a 5.2.1 fresh 
FreeBSD install. I followed a couple how-to's, the handbook, 
and "Absolute BSD" as my guides. My machine is a 1.8Ghz AMD.

Here is my supfile:

*default host=3Dcvsup15.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=3D/usr
*default prefix=3D/usr
*default release=3Dcvs tag=3DRELENG_5_2_1_RELEASE
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all
ports-all tag=3D.

Everything seemed to go without a hitch. I did:

1. cvsup mysupfile
2. make buildworld
3. make buildkernel
4. make installkernel
5. make installworld

The system is up and seems to be running fine, but here's my 
question:

uname -a shows:
FreeBSD 5.2.1-Release #0:

I was expecting the release (version, revision# ?) number to 
be greater than #0. I think I've seen where the latest 
revision is #9 or so? Do I need to tell it to get the latest 
revision somehow? Do I need to change the cvs tag=3D to 
something else to get up to date?

Thanks for your time,
Scott
