Hi folks,

Apologies if this has been covered before, but I couldnt' find anything on it.

I have a running version of Nevada build 69 which has been rock solid since I 
installed, but is well overdue for an update. My system has 2 disks organised 
as follows:

A zfs root partition, mirrored, set up as per the instructions in Tim Foster's 
excellent script.

A ufs partition on each disk, one of which contains the ufs root I used to 
install the zfs root . The partition on the other disk is the same size and 
unused

Another partition, also mirrored and pooled, containing a zfs file system for 
each user's home area. Plus other usual suspects such as a swap partition.

Is it just a simple as doing a ufs install of the new release on one or other 
of the ufs root partitions and then re-running the script, or will I lose the 
configuration for the home areas root pool by doing this? What else is likely 
to break and is there a better way - Live Update maybe?

Anything else I should know about updating a zfs boot system?

Kind regards,

Pete
