Updating from 4.8 release to 4.8 stable

Fri Jul 4 18:34:00 PDT 2003

Hello,
     I am very new to FreeBSD and just installed 4.8 release. I want to upgrade this to stable. I have printed some of the pages out for makeworld and CVSUP, I am wondering what the best method for doing the updates are, downloading the individual packages and installing or using the CVSUP to do this? Currently I used mostly Red Hat Linux but have wanted to give this a try for some time now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
