freebsd-update question

[Murray S. Kucherawy]

Hi,

I'm reading 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html 
in preparation for an update of a 6.2-RELEASE machine in a colocation 
faciilty.  However, that page says 6.3 or later is needed to do it via the 
freebsd-update(8) mechanism.

Are there any references for using freebsd-update for a 6.2 installation, 
or am I looking at doing the update from source as per
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html?

Thanks,
-MSK
