+ Subject: [FreeBSD-Announce] FreeBSD 6.1 Released

+ +

The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the availability +of FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE. This release continues the development of the +6-STABLE branch providing performance and stability improvements, many +bug fixes and new features. Some of the highlights:

+ + + + +

For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the +online release notes and errata list, available at:

http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/6.2R/relnotes.html +
+http://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/6.2R/errata.html

+ +

For more information about FreeBSD release engineering activities, +please see:

+ +

Availability

+ +

FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE is now available for the alpha, amd64, i386, ia64, +pc98, powerpc, and sparc64 architectures. It can be installed from bootable +ISO images or over the network; the required files can be downloaded +via FTP or BitTorrent as described in the sections below. While some of +the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures, they will all +generally contain the more common ones, such as i386 and amd64.

+ +

MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO images are included at the +bottom of this message.

+ +

The contents of the ISO images provided as part of the release has changed +for most of the architectures. Using the i386 architecture as an example, +there are ISO images named ``bootonly'', ``disc1'', ``disc2'', and ``docs''. The +``bootonly'' image is suitable for booting a machine to do a network based +installation using FTP or NFS. The ``disc1'' and ``disc2'' images are used +to do a full installation that includes a basic set of packages and does +not require network access to an FTP or NFS server during the installation. +In addition, ``disc1'' supports booting into a ``live CD-based filesystem'' and +system rescue mode. The ``docs'' image has all of the documentation for all +supported languages. Most people will find that ``disc1'' and ``disc2'' are +all that are needed.

+ +

FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM from several +vendors. Two of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD 6.2-based +products are:

+ + + +

Bittorrent

+ +

6.2-RELEASE ISOs are available via BitTorrent. A collection of torrent +files to download the images is available at:

+ +

http://torrents.freebsd.org:8080/

+ +

FTP

+ +

At the time of this announcement the following FTP + sites have FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE available.

+ + +

FreeBSD is also available via anonymous FTP from mirror sites in the +following countries and territories: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, +Bulgaria, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, +France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Japan, +Korea, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, +Romania, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Slovak Republic, Slovenia, +Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Ukraine, and the United Kingdom.

+ +

Before trying the central FTP site, please check your regional +mirror(s) first by going to:

+ +

ftp://ftp.<yourdomain>.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD

+ +

Any additional mirror sites will be labeled ftp2, ftp3 and so on.

+ +

More information about FreeBSD mirror sites can be found at:

+ +

http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html

+ +

For instructions on installing FreeBSD, please see Chapter 2 of The +FreeBSD Handbook. It provides a complete installation walk-through +for users new to FreeBSD, and can be found online at:

+ +

http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html

+ +

FreeBSD Update

+ +

The freebsd-update(8) utility, which is the client half of the FreeBSD +Update binary update system, is now included in the FreeBSD base system +and supported by the FreeBSD Security Team, which will be building +binary security and errata updates for the i386 and amd64 platforms.

+ +

In addition, an experimental version of the freebsd-update(8) utility is +available which supports upgrading systems between FreeBSD releases. +Administrators of FreeBSD 6.1 systems are encouraged to test this and +report any problems encountered on the freebsd-stable mailing list. For +more information, see:

+ +
