Hi!

Please, read maillist archive as an /usr/src/UPDATING...

In short words:

1) 3.4-R -> 3.5-S
2) 3.5-S -> 4.1.1-R
3) 4.1.1-R -> 4.3-S

Bye!

Serg N. Voronkov.

P.S.: Better you can use binary upgrade - it'l be shorter
downtime... And you don't need to remove old libraries/binaries if
you choose to newfs on /,/usr etc (backap your data!).
