sorressean: I had a quick question. It seems to take about 12-24 hours to get a response back. I just decided to try arpnetworks again, but this time with Freebsd, hoping that since it appears to be more used, it would be updated. It -is- more updated than OpenBSD 4.7, which is deployed, but not enough still. I'm just trying to learn and get a system up, but I can't grab any packages since the package repo doesn't have repos for 8.1 packages anymore. Without
boba: Without...? (You got cut off)
sorressean: Without having to wait on a response to mount my ISO and hope I don't break something through
upgrade, is there a way to upgrade from 8.1 to 8.2?
sorry, didn't realize it cut me off.
boba: I don't use freebsd... but http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/updating-upgrading-freebsdupdate.html should have instructions
sorressean: o, sweet. thanks! I was doing openbsd earlier and it ended up with me having to load a cd after it was mounted, which was a mess. this looks way easier.
mhoran: Yeah that should work for you.
Pretty easy and doesn't usually fail.

ifthen: sorressean: i got FreeBsd 8.1 out of the box from arp a few months ago. Runs flawless
RandalS: Can't thank you enough for the startup tips. Portmaster corrected two installs in some way I don't understand; Chromium and lxde. I like having the configs all up front. I see how you can walk away and not babysit the install that way. It did take 3 tries and 9 hours.
Going to try zsh soon

jdoe: sorressean: I did the obsd upgrade twice without a cd. I had no issues. YMMV.
