Update from 14 to 15

[Ron Georgia]

I am new to HBSD. I installed HBSD 14 on my computer. I've tried to
update it to HBSD 15 using hbsd-update. If I understand the
documentation, all one needs to do is change the version number in
hbsd-update.conf file; however, for me that did not work. I was
presented with the "diff" message letting me know that a difference was
detected in the conf file. Both times the new kernel was installed, but
a some critical shared libraries where not found. I could not use 'sudo'
or kldload drm and i915kms. Version 14 works wonderfully. Is there a way
to update from 14 to 15 or should I wait for the version 15 installer to
be built? Thank you in advance.

Hey Ron,

hbsd-update calls etcupdate, which is likely what caused the extra
prompts.

The 15-STABLE package repo is not yet ready. Once this[1] package
build finishes, I need to sync it with the main mirror, and then the
15-STABLE package repo will be ready.

I have been providing updates on the readiness of the 15-STABLE
package repo on the HardenedBSD Users mailing list. I plan to provide
an announcement when the 15-STABLE package repo is ready.

Thanks,
