+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span

+	upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running 	earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems
+running 	<tt class="LITERAL">8.[34]-RELEASE</tt>, 	<tt
+class="LITERAL">9.[01]-RELEASE</tt>, 	<tt class="LITERAL">9.1-BETA[123]</tt>, or
+	<tt class="LITERAL">9.1-RC[1234]</tt> can upgrade as follows:</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update fetch
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>Now the <a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility can fetch bits
+	belonging to 9.2-RELEASE. During this process 	<a

+	configuration files.</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update upgrade -r 9.2-RELEASE
+</pre>
+
+<p>Due to changes in the way that FreeBSD is packaged on the 	release media, two
+complications may arise in this process if 	upgrading from FreeBSD 8.x:</p>
+
+<ol type="1">
+<li>
+<p>The FreeBSD, which previously could appear in either 	 <tt
+class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt> or 	 <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/GENERIC</tt>, now
+only appears as 	 <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt>. As a result, any 	
+kernel appearing in <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/GENERIC</tt> 	 will be deleted. Please
+carefully read the output printed 	 by <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.2-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> and confirm that an updated
+	 kernel will be placed into 	 <tt class="FILENAME">/boot/kernel</tt> before
+proceeding beyond 	 this point.</p>
+</li>
+
+<li>
+<p>The FreeBSD source tree in <tt class="FILENAME">/usr/src</tt> 	 (if present) will
+be deleted. (Normally the 	 <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.2-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility will update a source
+tree, 	 but in this case the changes in release packaging result 	 in the <a
+href="http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=freebsd-update&sektion=8&manpath=FreeBSD+9.2-RELEASE">
+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> utility not recognizing that
+	 the source tree from the old release and the source tree 	 from the new release
+correspond to the same part of 	 FreeBSD.)</p>
+</li>
+</ol>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>The system must now be rebooted with the newly installed 	kernel before the
+non-kernel components are updated.</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> shutdown -r now
+</pre>
+
+<p>After rebooting, <a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span

+install the new userland components:</p>
+
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">#</samp> freebsd-update install
+</pre>
+
+<p>At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD 	8.4-RELEASE or
+earlier will be prompted by 	<a

+<span class="CITEREFENTRY"><span
+class="REFENTRYTITLE">freebsd-update</span>(8)</span></a> to rebuild all third-party
+applications 	(e.g., ports installed from the ports tree) due to updates in
+	system libraries.</p>
+
+<p>After updating installed third-party applications (and 	again, only if <a

+old (no 	longer used) system libraries:</p>

+
+<p>Finally, reboot into 9.2-RELEASE</p>
