The easiest way to do the upgrade (if you are using a GENERIC kernel) is
to use Freebsd-update (http://www.daemonology.net/freebsd-update/)
It's a pretty powerful tool which allows you to do binary updates for
FreeBSD.
To upgrade between major versions you would want to check out this page:

Ok, it should be working. If you have an iso file and an empty CD at
hand try something like this:
cdrecord -v -dao speed=24 driveropts=burnfree dev=3,0,0 mytest.iso
and see if it actually records it.

Being that it went to burn anyway, im assuming the burner is aok an is a
matter of simply finding why k3b dosent detect it OR allow me to add it as a
device
I was asking you to try k3b because internally it uses these commands to
write. I don't currently have it installed (I am not really a KDE user,
and I write most stuff from the command line anyway) but I think you
probably have a permission problem of some kind.
- Do you have the suid flag
Your running kernel is compiled with the device atapicam option
because AFAIK k3b only works with scsi.
yes i have that in my kernel
I have the following lines in this computers /etc/devfs.conf
link acd0 cdrom
link acd0 cd0
perm acd0 0777
perm cd0 0777
perm xpt0 0777
perm pass0
I don't think that is the problem. Have you tried it as root just as
a test even though it gives you warnings.
I don't know what else to suggest right now.
ed
k3b wont run as root i guess k3b just dosent like my burner
# k3b
Xlib: connection to :0.0 refused by server
Xlib: No protocol
Before you try to run k3b as root, from an xterm (or konsole) in KDE.
as your normal user, type:
xhost localhost
(you should get a message like: localhost being added to access control
list)
then su to root and try running k3b.
One note: I have had trouble allowing other hosts (or
I not long got k3b compiled and running, but it comes up saying ti dosent

Whats happening an how do i fix this issue ?
___
Start by reading the detailed instructions of the port:
cd /usr/ports/sysutils/k3b
make showinfo
You are probably missing the atapicam driver:
kldload atapicam
Edit /boot/loader.conf and add:
atapicam_load=YES
so that the above setting persists.
Yeah i got atapicam loaded,
Also, see if you can see it from k3b running as root or not. If you can
as root but not on a normal user, you'll have to give your normal user
permission to access the burner's device.
