Although I'm very new to FreeBSD (only since about 4.3 or 4.4...)
I spent hours and hours figuring out how to get my system running -STABLE 
version.
I strongly recommend the handbook first (ALWAYS)... but if you're left 
scratching your head.. maybe I can confuse you more!  ;)

After I kept making the same mistakes over and over while trying to update my 
system to -STABLE.. I finally typed it up in a txt doc.  At a LUG meeting, I 
mentioned it, and several FreeBSD newbies were interested... so I posted it 
on the web.  I just got done updating it.. and I can gaurantee it's not 
perfect.. but if someone can get some use out of it.....  *SHRUG*

If anyone has any questions about the doc, feel free to mail 
john@techgodz.com.  Also, who would I want to get in contact with to get more 
info about how to get involved with handbook people to try to get some 
clarity on the handbook page for this process... ?

Thanks,
John
