Hi, I tried using freebsd-update to upgrade my base system from 8.1-STABLE-201010 to 8.2-BETA1, but after upgrade I'm still getting old system version.
I tried using http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2010-December/060541.html so I did:
I don't know why it looks for 8.1-STABLE-201010 if I specified 8.2-BETA1, so I had to cheat:
After that upgrade went fine. I rebooted twice but I my machine still identifies as 8.1-STABLE-201010. Can anybody give me any pointers how to resolve my situation?
Code:
[~] # uname -a
FreeBSD altstation 8.1-STABLE-201010 FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE-201010 #0: Thu Oct 7 14:31:48 UTC 2010
