+
+<p>The <a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility supports binary
+upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running <tt
+class="LITERAL">7.[34]-RELEASE</tt>, <tt class="LITERAL">8.[12]-RELEASE</tt>, <tt
+class="LITERAL">9.0-BETA[123]</tt>, or <tt class="LITERAL">9.0-RC[123]</tt> can upgrade
+as follows:</p>
+
+<p>First, ensure that your current system is up to date; a change was recently made to <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> (Errata Notice <a
+href="http://security.FreeBSD.org/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update.asc"
+target="_top">FreeBSD-EN-12:01.freebsd-update</a>) which is needed in order to upgrade to
+FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE.</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update fetch
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>Now the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility can fetch bits
+belonging to 9.0-RELEASE. During this process <a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> will ask for help in merging
+configuration files.</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.0-RELEASE
+</pre>
+
+<p>Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the release media, two
+complications may arise in this process if upgrading from FreeBSD 7.x or 8.x:</p>
+
+<ol type="1">
+<li>
+<p>The FreeBSD, which previously could appear in either <tt
+class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt> or <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/GENERIC</tt>, now only
+appears as <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt>. As a result, any kernel appearing in
+<tt class="FILENAME">/boot/GENERIC</tt> will be deleted. Please carefully read the output
+printed by <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> and confirm that an updated
+kernel will be placed into <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt> before proceeding
+beyond this point.</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>The FreeBSD source tree in <tt class="FILENAME">/usr/src</tt> (if present) will be
+deleted. (Normally the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility will update a source
+tree, but in this case the changes in release packaging result in the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility not recognizing that
+the source tree from the old release and the source tree from the new release correspond
+to the same part of FreeBSD.)</p>
+</li>
+</ol>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>The system must now be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before the non-kernel
+components are updated.</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> shutdown -r now
+</pre>
+
+<p>After rebooting, <a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> needs to be run again to
+install the new userland components:</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE or earlier
+will be prompted by <a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> to rebuild all third-party
+applications (e.g., ports installed from the ports tree) due to updates in system
+libraries.</p>
+
+<p>After updating installed third-party applications (and again, only if <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.0-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span

+old (no longer used) system libraries:</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>Finally, reboot into 9.0-RELEASE</p>
