The upgrade process is fairly simple and as always there is FreeBSD Handbook page available that describes this: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/pkgng-intro.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/pkgng-intro.html The ports system still exists, tracking of the installed ports is now done by the pkgng system. The new package manager (pkg) only install binary packages, if you want to use source and binary, you have to use something like portupgrade.
