Depends on how you look at it. You perform a binary update via sysintall to 5.4, but that's an upgrade in my eyes and no reinstallation. I think not to update it means that you destroy your old bsd installation and perform a new one. And then you'll need that floppis (or a cdrom drive thats able to handle bootable cds).
