Installation
Grab an image from the official repositories. You likely will want either the -memstick.img or the mini-memstick.img images. The former is larger, the latter requires an internet conection during installation.
dd the image onto your device, and the rest will explain itself.
Upgrading
Updates to the operating system are handled by freebsd-update(8).
Each minor and major version release will have it's own upgrade notes. The general process is:
# run current version updates freebsd-update fetch freebsd-update install # fetch new version updates freebsd-update upgrade -r MAJOR.MINOR-RELEASE freebsd-update install # reboot shutdown -r now
