The .ko files have a Nov 3 2005 date, whereas the files in /boot

Nov 3 means 6.0-RELEASE since the announcement was done on Nov 4. So, I
guess I'm back to the question of how to do a binary upgrade from 6.0 to
6.1 (and particularly where is this documented). Should I attempt
another sysinstall Upgrade?
Show me
sysctl kern.version
and the output of a failed package fetch.
Here is the output of "portupgrade -PP -v expat":

I tried running another sysinstall Upgrade without installing X.org and
now I didn't have any errors. 'kernels' was one of the distributions
selected (by default) so I was wondering how *does* the kernel get
swapped while it's still running. So I ran another sysinstall but this
time from the 6.0-RELEASE CD-ROM. I chose 6.1-RELEASE from Options, FTP
from ftp.freebsd.org as the source of the distribution, and didn't
install X.org. It went OK as the previous one did, but upon reboot I
still have a 6.0-RELEASE kernel. So I'm back to wondering how do those
6.0 .ko objects get replaced by 6.1 .ko's in the upgrade process ...
