X-BeenThere: freebsd-stable@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: Production branch of FreeBSD source code List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Fri, 17 Oct 2003 17:55:08 -0000 I'm putting together a server that must be up and running by midnight (old one is failing and most be taken down). The old one is running FreeBSD, so to make it easy to replicate the configuration I'd like to put FreeBSD 4.x on it as well. But which version? 4.8-RELEASE with patches? 4.8-RELEASE-p13? 4.x-STABLE? or is 4.9-RELEASE-RC2 good enough to consider using? Opinions appreciated. --Brett
