to RELENG_6 *safely* on a many-user production system using the
instructions in UPDATING?
Certainly. My definition of "*safely*" means having a full backup of
the system to which I can go back to if the OS version upgrade
doesn't work; if you don't have a good backup, well, you can probably
update from 5 to 6 just fine, but I would not consider doing so to be
completely safe.
