I don't know if I missed it, but I did not even find the word 'upgrade' in the handbook table of contents. I have a string of 6.2 systems that need to be 6.3 and can't be down for much more than the reboot time. #*default tag=. *default tag=RELENG_6_2 *default host=cvsup15.us.freebsd.org *default prefix=/usr *default base=/var/db *default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix src-all Thsnks.
