Thanks for the "it works" reports, folks. Re-supped and
currently re-building, and it seems to be going OK now. Yes,
I've upgraded in-place on most previous occasions, too. (Only
exception was to 6, from memory, because a dump/wipe/install/restore
seemed to be the easiest way to get UFS2 onto the disks...)
Oh: there's an 8? I didn't think that 7 had been
tagged/branched, yet.
Cheers,
