I am very sorry if this is an FAQ, but I've looked at posts as far in the past
as I could, but could not find one relating to this exact topic.  To do a full
and confident upgrade to -current or -1.1-Beta, do I only have to grab the
sources from freebsd.cdrom.com, compile, and plug in, or do I have to also
reconfigure a number of other things as well?  If I have the former option 
available, could I then shorten my task to just grabbing the binaries for 
-1.1-Beta?  Thanks much for any help.
