# updating 15.0-CURRENT from ~ 3 weeks ago to 15.0-AlPHA1

The overall plan is:

1. upgrade only the GENERIC kernel package
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
1. re-bootstrap pkg for the new userland
1. delete all non-base system packages
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.
