That is partially correct. You can do the upgrade using 'make upgrade' which does 2+ world builds for you. See http://home.san.rr.com/freebsd/make-upgrade.html. However if I understand your situation accurately you might be better off just wiping your disk and starting fresh. Alternatively, if you can get your system to a stable/-stable version of 2.2.8 you should be able to do the make upgrade using the procedure on that page.
