Upgrading 5.0 -> 5.1

[Chris]

I kmow this is not the proper venue, but why do you have a site like yours
that not only seems to be running FreeBSD, but has Free, Net and GNUDarwin
listed as a Linux Distro?

This bothers me - Seeing FreeBSD misrepresented in such a mannor - that goes
for linuxiso.org too.

#You should *really* use 'make buildkernel' in the toplevel if you're
#combining it with a world update. Recommended procedure:
#~# cvsup /my/5.1.supfile
#~# cd /usr/src
#/usr/src# make buildworld
#/usr/src# make buildkernel KERNCONF=<yourKERNELname>
#/usr/src# make installkernel KERNCONF=<yourKERNELname>
#/usr/src# reboot
#OK boot -s
## fsck -p && mount -a
## ( cd /usr/src && make installworld )
## reboot
#OK boot
#
#Also read chapter 21 of the Handbook.
