I'm interested in upgrading from 4.11 to 5.x. I currently track 4.x stable using cvsup, but I've never done a major version upgrade.
First, should I bother? My hardware has dual pentium 1.13 processors with 1G ram (I'm considering maxing it out at 4). I host email and web sites for a few domains on this machine and I have four jails configured on it which will have to be upgraded too. I have users counting particularly on mail service not being down for too long. Other than the obvious advice to start with a good backup, can anyone tell me: 1) Will I gain a major benefit from upgrading 2) Where should I look for instructions / advice on upgrading 3) Also any general advice from personal experience. 4) Just how risky is this? Thanks. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
