--=-6UiFKNgFHiN/4mi0e8AQ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable The second Release Candidate for the FreeBSD 8.2 release cycle is now available. Initial testing of the 7.4-RC2 install images turned up an issue with the pre-built packages that will take a few more days to address. For this build only the amd64, i386, pc98, and sparc64 architectures are available. An initial set of pre-built packages are available on the DVD images for the amd64 and i386 architectures. Due to a limitation in the mechanism used in some of our FTP mirror site infrastructure we are still limited to a 2Gb maximum file size (we hope that issue will be addressed before the next release) the package set on the DVD image is a bit sparse - basically just the Gnome and KDE meta-packages. The images are also compressed using xz(1) to maximize the compression. The release schedule has slipped a bit from the original target schedule which is here: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.2R/schedule.html We'll adjust the schedule dates shortly. The wiki pages tracking the release are here: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.2R/schedule.html If you find problems you can report them through the normal Gnats based PR system or here on the mailing list. If you are updating an already running machine the CVS branch tag for 8.2-RC2 is RELENG_8_2. If you prefer SVN use "releng/8.2". The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running 8.0-RELEASE, 8.1-RELEASE, 8.2-BETA1 or 8.2-RC1 can upgrade as follows: # freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.2-RC2 During this process, FreeBSD Update may ask the user to help by merging some configuration files or by confirming that the automatically performed merging was done correctly. # freebsd-update install The system must be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before continuing. # shutdown -r now After rebooting, freebsd-update needs to be run again to install the new userland components, and the system needs to be rebooted again: # freebsd-update install # shutdown -r now Users of earlier FreeBSD releases (FreeBSD 7.x) can also use freebsd-update to upgrade to FreeBSD 8.2-RC2, but will be prompted to rebuild all third-party applications (e.g., anything installed from the ports tree) after the second invocation of "freebsd-update install", in order to handle differences in the system libraries between FreeBSD 7.x and FreeBSD 8.x. Checksums: [ Note this time I included checksums for both the compressed and uncompres= sed versions of the dvd1 images. Only the compressed version is available on t= he FTP sites but this allows you to check the integrity of the files you downl= oad to make sure they arrived intact before you uncompress them in case you wan= t to do that. ] MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-bootonly.iso) =3D 1d58274e15dd92aee079b31731a9c9= 29 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-disc1.iso) =3D 6fbe8eb70bee7cc37e4e14e5161230ad MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-dvd1.iso) =3D 4b9ead06c344069af6b0d721769ff13f MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-livefs.iso) =3D b2392596c6e67f77f4697e708a5c7534 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-memstick.img) =3D 4bb8ace0027d90b76863fd66b1cf17= 8c MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-dvd1.iso.xz) =3D a95331d8a4f9a41f8e8391379a7d110= 2 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-bootonly.iso) =3D 1818258ddb5b601b0e54fec0534ab3e= 4 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-disc1.iso) =3D ffabf2b1205394ed1ae42b97f83d1a61 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-dvd1.iso) =3D f26cdb7af4bda549be77cb282b03a41f MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-livefs.iso) =3D c11b62a858a85537892dd985d610a731 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-memstick.img) =3D 51597bf4a6310a139f69df860e39909= 5 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-dvd1.iso.xz) =3D 9e3aa435a0e92cff72d5469aebebf028 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-pc98-bootonly.iso) =3D 188c56fd78791e1282dbd09ab3ddf11= 0 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-pc98-disc1.iso) =3D 97ad122f7cc32bfada11128290782de6 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-pc98-livefs.iso) =3D b3db85f3751a8c45e74b7a5dcfbb88eb MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-bootonly.iso) =3D 728e402681519d964c7bfa87272c= f6ea MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-disc1.iso) =3D 0e5783eb6e14cae60ab38fa25514758= c MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-dvd1.iso) =3D 4d82fdc05a8ff741a6887b69a67863f3 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-livefs.iso) =3D 19b488e8c15239b0e7ef0caba4b584= b3 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-bootonly.iso) =3D 6572c7b9b01662adfb80a0fca21= bc3117a3073a122f33a0ba62e8f8709ce60df SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-disc1.iso) =3D de7e0aa1f1fcb78d13ee80a69d3398= af6a7885804762b37e5bf48424d3a4ae49 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-dvd1.iso) =3D d00ffe631f1365064eb790ad3ffcba3= e2ed2898c29a12d9375912c641d601594 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-livefs.iso) =3D 699ecff5e7f842246b9b43fa18847= 43cc351a09145ca723c766bd41087a9400e SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-memstick.img) =3D 9111b6dd479b00bf9db374a6f65= 1e979fe32e4c206e4b582c30912765c9f5214 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-amd64-dvd1.iso.xz) =3D 63de0592c0ddf2a6e64e48caab41= 40e258ae222303493442aa36827f36443584 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-bootonly.iso) =3D 64aa6316f6010911575e2cbf75d6= 239323a96c8ae731b8b98cd6f70394d81b94 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-disc1.iso) =3D 82d80d924db8952ae5d6c8946cbf89a= 21f7457f761169aa963e24b03271a4f74 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-dvd1.iso) =3D 8a9b08423252860f30e4bc79a4460627= 41fc55af329aa529ac4a1663d60d5ff7 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-livefs.iso) =3D 62764fa1ff654bb821741c8037d37b= 826c298842998665e2995d1bcfa8dfab38 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-memstick.img) =3D 0a1b8efc97aafa5e9c0a5ee4f18f= a5f3c0af473f3f239455a9fd7dae56bd9964 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-i386-dvd1.iso.xz) =3D 5f8f66162ab085eefe4e89845dcb3= ea903757aec496e033de8c7ea7eb802f9a6 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-pc98-bootonly.iso) =3D 28b97d7d0e1219bfad4308d06c94= d7fa29da2cd41aab763e1ff83d8e09d4105c SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-pc98-disc1.iso) =3D 6f188a7dcc5b8966ea4082cfb1f2a40= 50c1624b74605ff53647d5dae98063536 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-pc98-livefs.iso) =3D a6da702a151ce7f1794a7fa28ea0e4= e07359de0169ef904eb0646c004b8c807b SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-bootonly.iso) =3D 8c912deb11fed9ba17e12c992= 05cfd3dbe74ad6ce87454f54b325a8869f9f855 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-disc1.iso) =3D 009fdf506cab2dbe6f2f87950d4f= 572efcca8aec186d6160a3f71946d16fd4ce SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-dvd1.iso) =3D 080b79a3ead845b8ba7c349c06ae1= df10c055f2313a0b45156c9dfd3287d3db2 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.2-RC2-sparc64-livefs.iso) =3D 95f3148704a475b5bd194e3acbc= fa1678cdd02ab240c378779c049ee077dbb0e --=20 Ken Smith - From there to here, from here to | kensmith@buffalo.edu there, funny things are everywhere. | - Theodor Geisel | --=-6UiFKNgFHiN/4mi0e8AQ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iEYEABECAAYFAk0zLngACgkQ/G14VSmup/aV9wCfaq56e3fZZhVayLRsYJmd6yj0 nScAn1T/W5nwo/DcvAiekXejoSgU67bQ =rQof -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-6UiFKNgFHiN/4mi0e8AQ--
