Upgrading a System from Freebsd6.2 to 6.3

[Martin McCormick]

Can I upgrade a system from 6.2 to 6.3 by changing the 

*default tag=RELENG_6_2
line in my cvs-supfile to 
*default tag=RELENG_6_3

Then, I just do the usual remaking of the world and
kernel.

I don't know if I missed it, but I did not even find the
word 'upgrade' in the handbook table of contents.

I have a string of 6.2 systems that need to be 6.3 and
can't be down for much more than the reboot time.

#*default tag=.
*default tag=RELENG_6_2
*default host=cvsup15.us.freebsd.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/var/db
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix

src-all

Thsnks.

Yep!  Be sure to check in /usr/src/UPDATING to see if there are any special 
gotchas.
