New Install FreeBSD 6.2 with latest patch level question

2007-02-12 Thread Sean Murphy
I am going to install FreeBSD 6.2 Release on a new box but I noticed it 
is now on patch 1.  Is there a way to install FreeBSD 6.2 patch 1 on a 
new install without having to install 6.2 Release then updating the 
source and finally doing a build/make world after installing 6.2?


Thanks

I'm actually not certain on that, however instead of doing the
build/make world update you can now use the freebsd-update to do a much
faster binary update to the latest patchlevel.
(man freebsd-update and freebsd-update.conf for details)

It's possible to create your own install cd.  Do some googling on make
release for FreeBSD.

However, if it's only 1 machine, it will take the same amount of time/
effort to buildworld/buildkernel.

   Is it possible to change the tags from sysinstall and then use ftp to
   download the latest security release?
