Since this page is to document the upgrade to 9.1-RELEASE, upgrading from 9.0-RELEASE will fail and upgrading from pre-9.0 will upgrade to 9.0-RELEASE. [CODE] Now the freebsd-update(8) utility can fetch bits belonging to 9.1-RELEASE. During this process freebsd-update(8) will ask for help in merging configuration files. # freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.0-RELEASE [/CODE] >How-To-Repeat: On a 9.0-RELEASE machine, enter the commands as instructed. [CODE] # sudo freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.0-RELEASE freebsd-update: Cannot upgrade from 9.0-RELEASE to itself [/CODE] >Fix: Change "9.0-RELEASE" to "9.1-RELEASE". [CODE] # sudo freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.1-RELEASE Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 3 mirrors found. Fetching metadata signature for 9.0-RELEASE from update4.FreeBSD.org... done. Fetching metadata index... done. Fetching 1 metadata patches. done. Applying metadata patches... done. Fetching 1 metadata files... done. ..... [/CODE] The website should be updated as follows. [CODE] Now the freebsd-update(8) utility can fetch bits belonging to 9.1-RELEASE. During this process freebsd-update(8) will ask for help in merging configuration files. # freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.1-RELEASE [/CODE] >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
