I do it all the time, like this: 1) sync your sourcetree using cvsup: # cd /usr/src # make update 2) Read /usr/src/UPDATING, do whatever is needed according to that file 3) Rebuild your kernel and world # make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYCONF # make buildworld 4) If all this went well, install the new kernel and world # make installkernel KERNCONF=MYCONF # make installworld 5) Merge configfiles, since installworld (luckily) doesnt do this # mergemaster 6) # shutdown -r +5 'Now entering the new world ..'
