Upgrade to 8.2 from PC-BSD 8.1

R

I installed FreeBSD 8.1 using the PC-BSD livecd installer, mainly to get an easy working FreeBSD with ZFS (No GUI, just server).

Now that FreeBSD 8.2 is released and has new ZFS features, can I easily upgrade my system using the guide on http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.2R/announce.html ?

Also, my system including the root is completely ZFS. Also in the notes it says ZFS on-disk-format is 15, do I need to upgrade my ZFS filesystems as well?

U choosed PC-BSD, so it is better u wait for your distro upgrade path.

You chose PC-BSD, so it is better if you wait for your distro upgrade path.

(edit to the editor) Whats the point? And choose is with double OO...

[ http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=18043 is the point, and that's all the encouragement you need (and 'choosed' is nonsense, it's either 'chose' (past tense) or 'choose' (present tense) - Mod. ]

Why on earth did you use a GUI centered spin-off to install a non-GUI server?

Mainly for the easy way to install FreeBSD on ZFS.
