I have read the guide but it is not enouht for me I can say I am newbie.

Actually I don't want to update gateways. I want to make a clean install.
I have Bonds, lots of interfaces in them.

The R80.40 upgrade guide describes what you want to do, quite precisely. Where do you struggle?

I did a short writeup here - https://namitguy.blogspot.com/2020/01/migrating-check-point-cluster-to-new.html

This above process is to move your cluster to new hardware, you're re-using the same hardware so I guess that makes the process a bit simpler, seeing as interface naming etc. is the same.
