I'm running a FreeBSD 6.x server that hasn't been updated in about 1.5 years.
atlas:~>uname -mprs FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE-p8 i386 i386 What is the recommended way to upgrade it to something current? Should I upgrade it to the most recent 6.x and then to 7.x and then to 8.x? Or should I use a more direct route, upgrading it straight to the 8-RELEASE branch? I've been using the cvsup/make method of upgrades for years and only used freebsd-upgrade once. I'm not sure if either method can handle a 6.x to 8.x upgrade. I also have a bunch of ports in this server (e.g. apache, postfix, etc.) Once the OS is updated, should I just portupgrade them all?
