I want to upgrade FreeBSD 3.2 (which I have on CD-ROM) to FreeBSD 4.X. =
(which I don't have on CD-ROM). What steps do I have to take? I read the =
.TXT files in =
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.1.1-RELEASE/ (or is it =
ftp://releng4.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/i386/4.2-20010102-STABLE/=
?). But what do I have to do first? Install the latest version of =
sysinstall? What packages do I have to download? Everything in the /bin =
directory? And then run install.sh? And then the same for /manpages? Is =
that all? See: lots and lots of questions :-). Is there an experienced =
user out there who can and want to help me?
