Update Full install in place

Post by bunk3m »

It would be really nice if we could do incremental updates in place using a tool like "apt-get update" or "port upgrade outdated" etc.

It would be much easier than having to download most recent image, check sum, burn to CD, reboot with CD, do update, remove CD and reboot again.
