I dwant to upgrade the machine to 4.7-RELEASE, but don't want to do an in-place upgrade. Is it possible, to install freebsd on a second disk on a freebsd system running live, by running /stand/sysinstall. Here /stand/sysinstall is from 4.2 release and as I mentioned before, I will point it to install freebsd 4.7 from CD.
