Hello, What I've done this WE was updating a very recent -Stable box to -Current (as described in UPDATING): this sems mostly not risky : as long as the make buildworld + make buildkernel does not succeed, you keep your valid -Stable machine. this is for the upgrade to a -Current. Afterwards, there is a paper by Matt Dillon (subject "My Recommended Development/Testing environment for -current", on -current, which mwlucas could include in the "official" doc tree), which seems to give good guidelines to update a -Current machine from a -Stable one : this is what I intend to do, but with the same box, dual-booting between -Stable and -Current) As a thread on -current indicated, the state of -Current is surpisingly good : I'm now port-compiling Gnome (KDE couldn't compile, though) TfH PS : this is on an SMP box, of course ...
