i want to upgrade from 1.1G to 1.1R ... i have only source for
src/sys... i don't really need 1.1R, but i think that it will be
easier to upgrade to successive releases if i upgrade to 1.1R now.  is
that right?

also, what is an easy way to upgrade from one major version to the
next?  i had a bad crash with 1.0.2 and that's when i upgraded to 1.1G
-- but i did it almost from scratch and don't see an easy way to do
otherwise.

ok thanks..
