And back, you can change the tag back to 6_1... Or just RELENG_6 for 6-STABLE.

It is there on my 6-Stable system, but it looks like it is not in 6.2-Release.It's been in HEAD for over 2 years. > > I am a bit confused,though. I see my 6.2-Stable has src/UPDATING,v 1.416.2.35, but I can't find that version in CVS. I see only one commit, 1.416, in RELENG_6 and I know that it has had more commits since then. >Um, I went to go check the file on a 7.0-BETA1 I just installed and and doing the ground up on.. And I just realized something........... WHERE is the step to install the kernel?? I always thought it was : make buildworld make kernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE make installkernel KERNCONF=YOUR_KERNEL_HERE [1] <reboot in single> [3] Tuc
