Why do you want a 'STABLE'?You want a RELEASE version.

Then, after you have installed it,  do a CVSUP to RELENG_6_1
or maybe just RELENG_6  and it will get you the latest stuff
you need.  Make sure you cvsup your ports at the same time too.

Hi,

A stable ? Read 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/current-stable.html 
.

I would opt for 6.

Hth.

Robert

start with 6.1 and play with STABLE (which is 6.2 beta currently I 
believe) on another machine. that or install 6.1 then cvs to 6.2 if you 
like.


i wouldnt bother with the 5.x releases.
