is it stable? Are you running it in a production environment yet? What are your impressions of it so far?

I haven't seen any indication that it's not stable, but this code is much less tested then the 4.x code, so there may still be some bugs lurking. I'm sticking with 4.x for my servers for now but am upgrading all my FreeBSD workstations. I'll probably start swiching servers over around the time of 5.1 or 5.2.

I'm going to load it on a test server tommarow. I haven't use the 5.x branch in a while. Of course, now I'll have to get a multiprocessor PC to test out SMPng

Explain why FreeBSD 5 is 2 disks & 4.7 was 4 [install disk - fix it - 2 extra packages disks ]. Is 5 just an upgrade to be installed over the top of 4.7 or what?

By disks I take it you mean CDs? There probably just aren't as many packages put together yet for 5.0. I always just download the mini-ISO and download the latest ports from the 'net instead of grabbing all those ISOs.

You have the option of either upgrading to 5.0 or doing a fresh load. make world's kind of a hairy process. It might be easier to just tar key directories (/etc, /home...), do a fresh install of 5.0, then copy over your old files to the new install.

Disks generally mean CD's when ISO's are involved.

Thank you for the reply - But I'd already figured out that much. I was looking for a more definitive - verbose explanation.

Thank you anyway.
