5.2 was replaced with 5.2.1, because 5.2 had too many show stopping problems. > Because I used to use 5.2-release, I want to install another pc from FTP > site. > > On other hand I found 5.2.1-release is not stable, because I try to install > Gnome or KDE or GCC34.etc > > They are all fail when I want to do port installation. I can't answer this without detailed specifics on how they fail (error messages, etc) > I just installed 5.2.1-release version from ftp, then port install > application, then it's fail I would recommend grabbing one of the 5.3BETAs, or waiting for 5.3-RELEASE. The BETAs are much more stable and production-ready than 5.2.1 was, and 5.3-RELEASE is intended to be officially announced as production ready. I believe 5.3-RELEASE is scheduled within the next few weeks. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
