usually, i:
rm -rf /usr/src/* /usr/obj/*
and then just cvsup a whole new set of sources. i then buildworld and
buildkernel as laid out in the handbook:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
if you do that, you should be able to move from 6.anything to 6.2-RELEASE
without any issues.
