Wait for page to load Click Scan drive for all information pertaining to MS (and non apparently) software. Select the updates requires using multiple clicks. Click review installs. Click Install Now. Wait for download. Wait for installation and pray. Click Reboot. Now things could go 2 ways: OK or re-install from scratch... Now, FreeBSD: portupgrade -rRa Press enter. Wait until complete (ok, this is totally realistic, but this is our goal that we are aiming to achieve, is it not? You may need to resolve some minor problems.)
