# updating 15.0-CURRENT from ~ 3 weeks ago to 15.0-ALPHA1 NB I built my own pkgbase set, based off stable/15 @ 0b3d82579a01db4c5d874cda1ac468bb8f26c109 The overall plan is: 1. upgrade only the GENERIC kernel package from my pkgbase set 1. update the EFI boot loader /boot/efi/EFI/FreeBSD/current.efi in my case 1. reboot 1. upgrade all the remaining base system packages from my pkgbase set 1. re-bootstrap pkg for the new userland from the public pkg.freebsd.org packages 1. delete all non-base system packages to remove a few years of cruft 1. install my minimal useful package list 1. reboot again 1. install all the toys 1. celebrate In practice I didn't quite follow this recipe, but close enough.
