If I specify the parameter of tag as RELENG_4, then does cvsup
only fetch the latest source code of my current system version?
Well, RELENG_4 a.k.a. FreeBSD 4-stable is FreeBSD 4.11 (the latest

I was wondering if it is possible to upgrade from FreeBSD 3.2 to 5.3
without doing a fresh install, and if possible what issues might I have.

This is rather a nubee question..
I am used to OBSD and how to update my sources...but seem to be
missing something with FREEBSD.
I installed 5.3 release and all I want to do now is update the source
