Until now, when I've been updating, I been doing like the "Making the world"
your own tutorial on www.freebsd.org.  I.e. for the build server, going to
single-user mode, doing make buildworld, make installworld, building a new
kernel and rebooting.  For the clients, going single-user, mounting /usr/src
and /usr/obj via NFS and doing make reinstall.  Here's my question: do I
really need to go single-user?  It makes the downtime significantly greater
(particularly for the build server).  Will Bad Things happen if I do the
make installworld on a live box?
