Questions about -current to 15 -current


I am sure this is probably covered somewhere, I have just not found it.

With -current installed, just prior to the 15 release. If I want to upgrade to 15 -current, what are the proper steps?

Thanks.

Still using a -current mirror I would just upgrade the usual way:

Code:
slackpkg update
slackpkg install-new
slackpkg upgrade-all
slackpkg clean-system
and you will be up to date on -current.

I did find that post, but wasn't sure if there was a kernel change involved.
