When you ran freebsd-update fetch you received the response "No updates needed to update system to 9.3-RELEASE-p12." So you are at 9.3-RELEASE-p12. As Jason stated, you probably do not have /usr/src on that system which caused the "No such file or directory" errors you received but the binary updates must have been installed. -- Paul Smith
