I am getting the whole repository, and my /usr/src is made up of RELENG_4 tagged files. A couple of weeks ago uname returned '4.4-RC2'. Today after a complete 'cvsup', 'cvs update' and rebuild - make buildworld make buildkernel make installkernel make installworld uname returns: FreeBSD dougbsd 4.4-RC FreeBSD 4.4-RC #0: Fri Sep 7 11:41:04 CDT 2001 I was expecting a number after the 'RC'. Where does this info come from in the source tree? Is the above what I should expect. The first build was done with GENERIC. Today's was customized to eliminate some CPU types and APM.
