I have usually followed the canonical way to update my system, as described in the handbook. But now I need to update a system that I cannot reach physically for a long time. Is there any way to do this? The system runs primarily as a webserver, and it doesn't have many users. Could I just stop apache and follow the canonical way, except I don't go into single user mode?

Sincerely,

I do under normal multiuser root:

# cd /usr/obj
# rm -rf *
# cd /usr/src
# /make clean
# make buildworld && make buildkernel KERNCONF=FOO && make installkernel KERNCONF=FOO && make installworld && mergemaster

then reboot

prolly not the correct way, but works for me, (never tried across major version changes)
