I don't see any .iso file for Instructions given already by Devin. Basically, STABLE is a good compromise between running the latest version (10-CURRENT if you're on 9, or 9.x if you're on 8), and running a RELEASE that gets updated very slowly. I've never had bad surprises with STABLE and encourage running it instead of RELEASE if you want the latest patches. Note that on occasion, STABLE will be replaced by BETA or RC. For example 8.2-STABLE became 8.3-RC1 at some point, then 8.3-RC1 ceased to exist altogether and was renamed to 8.3-STABLE (discounting any other release candidates here). ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
