I have just upgraded a 6.2 box to 7.0 Release following the instructions
at
http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2007-11-11-freebsd-major-version-upgrade
.html to the letter without issue (other than bind needing to be
reinstalled from ports afterwards)

# freebsd-update -r 7.0-RELEASE upgrade
Looking up update.FreeBSD.org mirrors... 1 mirrors found.
Fetching public key from update1.FreeBSD.org... failed.
No mirrors remaining, giving up.
# sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -r 7.0-RELEASE upgrade
freebsd-update.sh: Can't open freebsd-update.sh: No such file or directory
I then did a search for the sh file ....
# sh freebsd-update.sh -f freebsd-update.conf -r 7.0-RELEASE upgrade
File does not exist or is not readable: freebsd-update.conf
freebsd-update is part of base system so there was no need to install it via
the port etc .. or is there ?
no for versions of FreeBSD beyond 6.3 its in base and you dont need to
install it seperately to upgrade between versions.
freebsd-update -r 7.1-RELEASE upgrade
seems to have an effect where 7.0-RELEASE no longer does. I have CCed
freebsd-stable@ on this to see if anyone knows if this is intended or a
mistake.
