Hi! I am running 4.2-STABLE, and I want to download the packages appropriate for this distribution. Which version should I use? This might be a *terribly* stupid question, and for that I do apologize...I haven't found any entry in the online handbook as to which version to use...I bought the CD's, but they've been viciously destroyed by a cute little kid, so that's why I want to download them... I can condense my question into this: How do I match the correct distribution with the correct ports/packages distribution? /Fredrik Carlén, Stockholm To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
