Hi.

... a newbie question ...

I installed NetBSD 1.5 with a couple of packages. Now I would like to
know whether it's possible to upgrade to NetBSD 1.5.1. Is it now
required to recompile all the installed packages (or possibly some of
them), or can the new system be installed over an existing NetBSD 1.5
installation?

Please let me know whether there is any FAQ about this.

TIA
