Thanks Doug for your help. I am cc'ing freebsd-questions and I will drop

Cool, thanks.

A few things:
1. it's not a requirement, but I'd like to keep the current partitions
(therefore dual boot) just in case anything goes wrong.

You can't dual boot without a console. Even if you could, as I said previously you're running the (non-trivial) risk of bricking your system.

3. I guess what you are saying is that if I go with the upgrade path
release 4->5->6, I can do "in place" upgrade over network.

Yes. This isn't trivial either, but it's a moderately well tested upgrade path.

hth,

Doug
