Either release, or a pre-release snapshot - close to release these also have no suffix but aren't necessarily the final release. If you're running one of those, to upgrade to the final release version, you need to run the installer and "upgrade" to the version in the 7.4 directory when available. This cannot be done via sysupgrade unless you modify it.
