    I am running 5.1-RELEASE and would like to update to 5.1-STABLE. How
    can I go about it? I just want to install the software and not the
    kernel itself. Is that possible?

    Also, where is the information for pkg_add kept? I mean when I say
    'pkg_add -r bash2' how does it know where to go get it? Is there a
    config file for pkg_add somewhere? I searched for it but could not find
    it.

    Thanks in advance.
