Hi!
Yes, I've done that a week ago, and everything went well. You only have to
be careful with your compile options (in /etc/make.conf) if you have increased
the optimization level for compiling ports (don't use more than -O).
Just follow the handbook instructions ("new" procedure) and you're on your
way. In case something fails and if you're not familiar with the booting
process, read the section about how to boot your old kernel if the new one
doesn't work.
Regards,
Olivier
