Just a quick note to say these upgrade instructions are n00b-proof
enough for me to upgrade successfully.
Before
cd /usr/src
I did have to
cd /usr
make src-create-repo
But now I am running DragonFly 3.4!
Best wishes

Version 3.4 of DragonFly is officially out.
The release ISO/IMG files are all available at the usual mirrors:
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/mirrors/
The release notes have details on all the changes:
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/release34/
If you are planning to try the new dports system for installing
third-party software, check the DPorts Howto page:
http://www.dragonflybsd.org/docs/howtos/HowToDPorts/
If you have an installed DragonFly 3.2 system and you are looking to
upgrade, these (not directly tested) steps should work, as root:
cd /usr/src
git fetch origin
git branch DragonFly_RELEASE_3_4 origin/DragonFly_RELEASE_3_4
git checkout DragonFly_RELEASE_3_4
... And then go through the normal buildworld/buildkernel process
found in /usr/src/UPDATING. If you are running a generic kernel, that
can be as simple as
make buildworld && make buildkernel && make installkernel && make
installworld && make upgrade
(and then reboot)
If you encounter problems, please report them at
bugs.dragonflybsd.org. I get better at testing for each release, but
I also get better at discovering new problems just after release.
