The best way is to update stepwise using freebsd-update, so: 8.0 -> 8.3 -> 9.1 -> 9.3 -> 10.1 -> 10.3 > Direct jump into the future (8 -> 11)? Progressive steps (8 -> 9 -> 10 > -> 11)? Boiling water on the HDs? :-) Stepwise. Huge jumps have too many rough edges. -- p...@opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 2 years to go ! _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
