I just installed patch 5 (5.1B-3), but uname shows the
same verion as I had before:
uname -va
OSF1 oak V5.1 2650 alpha

My previous version was 5.2B PK4.

I ran versw:
> versw -switch
Failure to switch versions because the new version is older than than the active
version

Patch tracking shows the 5.B-3 installed:

  Date Time Prd Patch Operation KitName

2006/03/08 12:40 DU Patch 26114.00 Installed T64V51BB26AS0005-20050502
2006/03/08 12:40 DU Patch 26113.00 Installed T64V51BB26AS0005-20050502
2006/03/08 12:40 DU Patch 26110.00 Installed T64V51BB26AS0005-20050502

The patch install seemed to go smooth. I ran with single user mode with network.
I did the kernel build, replaced the kernel, and rebooted.

Any reason why the version string did not change?

File that I used = T64V51BB26AS0005-20050502.tar

Thanks a bunch...
