Re: upgrading to a specified version?

FreeBSD 4-stable is FreeBSD 4.11 (the latest release) + security fixes + bug fixes or small backports from the -current branch, although this is not very likely for FreeBSD 4 anymore. RELENG_4_11 on the other and the security branch of FreeBSD 4.11 + security fixes. If you want to run FreeBSD 4 on your machine, I'd recommend any of the two above branches (since FreeBSD 5 is the new stable branch, RELENG_4 and RELENG_4_11 won't differ a lot).
