After installing FreeBSD, I would like to follow some simple steps to get it fully up-to-date. The Handbook and other online instructions seem a bit overwhelming. I developed some instructions when I was experiementing with 5.x, and I'm not sure if the are still valid for 6.x. Do these instructions look okay, or should I be using something else?
