I want to upgrade to 4.5 Release from 4.4 Release.  Can I do that by simply
changing the syntax of my portsupfile from this:

# listed at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html.
*default host=cvsup1.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_4
*default delete use-rel-suffix


to this:

# listed at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html.
*default host=cvsup1.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_5
*default delete use-rel-suffix

(and then

  	# shutdown now
  	# boot -s
    	# fsck -p
    	# mount -u /
    	# mount -a -t ufs
    	# swapon -a
  	# adjkerntz -i
    	# cd /usr/obj
    	# chflags -R noschg *
    	# rm -rf *
  	# cd /usr/src
  	# make world
  	# mergemaster -v
)


Thank you,

Eric
