Hello, I am trying to apply a patch set to FreeBSD 5.5 (this letter 'p' followed by a number, after the version in 'uname -a') - but somehow it did not work. I cvsup-ed the src using the standard 'stable-supfile' with '*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_5_5' - then I rebuild world. Now 'uname -a' reports 'FreeBSD 5.5 STABLE #0'. Before it was 'FreeBSD 5.5 RELEASE #0'. So instead of applying patch set I have moved to 'STABLE'. Could somebody tell me what have I done wrong? Actually - what is the difference between the 'pX' and the '#X' after the version? Thank you, Iv --
