On one of my machines I have been tracking FreeBSD via stable/10. When the stable/11 branch was created, I started to follow it. Everything was fine. However, at some point I decided that I was not making anything significant enough to justify compiling from source and stopped `svn update` (at r305361, 11.0-PRERELEASE), waiting for 11.0-RELEASE images to be available. I naively tried to run `freebsd-update fetch` but of course 11.0-PRERELEASE is unknown at update.freebsd.org so nothing is fetched, and I'm stuck not knowing what to do next. Is there anyway I can still keep my current system and upgrade to the pre-compiled 11.0-RELEASE-p1 without going through a full installation? Thanks! a. -- https://bleu255.com/~aymeric
