Been trying to figure this out with no luck. 

I have a 3.2 FreeBSD box with a 200 MB root, 200 MB /var and 200 MB
/usr

I'd like to upgrade it to 3.4 so a friend can compile a program and
then I'm going to wipe it clean and install 4.0 from CDs. It's on
a DSL line, so access to the network is no problem. 

Can I cvsup and build and install sections of the /usr/src directory
individually and then remove those and build the next section? Like
/usr/src/bin and then /usr/src/contrib, etc.? If so, is there a 
particular order to do those in?

Or can I use ftp to install 3.4 over 3.2?

Thanks!

later, david
