Hello,

I've been working on getting my amd64 system ready to replace the 
current system. For some applications I need to recompile the kernel. 
If I do a complete upgrade with the standard-cvsup file, I end up with 
a 6.0 FreeBSD system. Is this system reasonably stable, or should I 
remain with the 5.2.1 release?

Thanks in advance,

Regards
Pieter-Jan Nefkens
