Kris,

thanks and gotcha. I've never done a binary upgrade before, anywhere I can
read up on that? (probably somewhere really logical like a README somewhere :)
Sorry, it's been a loooong day... I saw an article somewhere that said
some people use /stand/sysinstall for binary upgrades - I usually don't
use /stand/sysinstall other than during installation so not sure about
that one. Would that be a prefered way of doing it?

Thanks again,
Jo
