cp /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf /etc/
cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile /etc/
cp /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile /etc/
modify stable-supfile to use cvsup6.tw.freebsd.org
csup /etc/stable-supfile
ports用portsnap較快
對於Release版的security patch可以用freebsd-update來做更新
http://ohaha.ks.edu.tw/post/1/32
The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running 7.0-RELEASE, 7.1-BETA, 7.1-BETA2, 7.1-RC1, or 7.1-RC2 can upgrade as follows:
# freebsd-update upgrade -r 7.1-RELEASE
During this process, FreeBSD Update may ask the user to help by merging some configuration files or by confirming that the automatically performed merging was done correctly.
# freebsd-update install
The system must be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before continuing.
# shutdown -r now
After rebooting, freebsd-update needs to be run again to install the new userland components, and the system needs to be rebooted again:
# freebsd-update install
# shutdown -r now
