Hi,

I have 1.6.0 running and just downloaded and burned 1.8.0, But for a 
proper upgrade and keeping applications and settings installed, I 
suppose I shouldn't use the cd but rather upgrade according to the 
handbook?
Just check out a copy of the 1.8 sources and then do:

cd /usr/src
make buildworld
make buildkernel KERNCONF=YOURCONF
make installkernel
make installworld
make upgrade
(see also build(7) manpage)

Regards,
Sascha
