I can't believe it. After two days of scraping around for why it isn't working and one command later it works!

The above ln command worked and postgresql 7.3.2 is currently installing.

This is not the mail list for such a question but since you bring it up, can you point me to a concise documented
procedurefor upgrading my 4.6 to 4.7 or 4.8? 

If you prefer, you can post it to freebsd-questions where I will eagerly await your response. Thanks again and again.
