For instance, I have 4.5 at FreeBSD > 4.5-RELEASEp2 #0. I noticed when I boot from the install media, it is #2. This seems to be something like a 'kernel build number'.

If you re-compile your kernel, the #0 becomes #1, and so on. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * I tried to drown my problems but found out they can swim.
