I know the procedure (freebsd-update, recompile all > ports, finish freebsd-update). Succes stories please.. ;-) Did just that with no kinks at all. It's a zfsroot system with gptzfsloader. Had to upgrade the gpt bootcode as instructed when upgrading the zpool for the system to boot. Installing misc/compat8x made the ports upgrade a lot smoother. Also had to manually fetch source.txz and extract into /usr/src/sys in order for certain ports to build correctly such as x11/nvidia-driver, as that was not done by freebsd-update
