 That code is still in the version control system, all you need to do is
 configure cvsup to fetch it and rebuild your system.

 Use the RELENG_4_7, since p28 was the last patch on the 4.7 branch.

Indeed they are all still available. Very nice, I'm upgrading to p28
now. Thanks!

Getting old versions of FreeBSD

Hi,

For some 'issue' I have to install an old version FreeBSD: 4.7-p28. The
ISO of 4.7 I have found, but how to get to p28?

Hello Frederique,

 You have to track the errata branch of 4.7. That would be RELENG_4_7.
Get the sources (i suppose they are on cvs) using csup(1) and rebuild
world/kernel
and you should get to p28.

 I don't know for sure if the sources for that specific errata branch are
still there.
Maybe others can shed some lights on this.

Here you can find the errata 4.7-RELEASE errata:
http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.7R/errata.html.


a great day,
v
