How to Upgrade FreeBSD to a Newer Version or Release

Commands:

  • freebsd-update upgrade -r 14.1-RELEASE
  • freebsd-update install
  • shutdown -r now
  • freebsd-update install
  • shutdown -r now

Notes:

  • “14.1-RELEASE” –> You can use replace it with “14.2-RELEASE” or any other release in that format.
  • Before running the final “shutdown -r now”, you might have to do an additional “freebsd-update install” if any application is asking for it.
