If you have not already, make certain you use the appropriate tag of "RELENG_8", and not "RELENG_8_0" as per: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/cvs-tags.html Since what you are needing for this particular test is 8-STABLE. You can use csup(1) to get the latest stable source as follows: csup -h <enter cvsup mirror hostname here> /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile You can get the list of csup/cvsup mirrors here: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/cvsup.html#CVSUP-MIRRORS > and then rebuilt the world and the kernel.
