Hi,


Can I update FreeBSD 9.3 -> 11.0 using source update?? Or that is too
aggressive, so I need to do 9.3 -> 10.3, then 10.3 -> 11.0??

I guess there is so much danger lurking in 9.3-STABLE -> 11.0-STABLE using
source upgrade, but not 9.3-RELEASE -> 11.0-RELEASE using freebsd-update.

The former method is prone to failure while the freebsd-update method is
not. Why so?
