A number of the issues brought up with RC2 have been resolved, and the latest release candidate (RC3) is now available for i386 (alpha coming soon) : ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.9-RC3 ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.9-RC3-i386-disc1.iso MD5 (4.9-RC3-i386-disc1.iso) = a8fc7f9b86865004a02ab7a805cddbf0 We are especially interested in hearing reports from users using IPFW2 after Kirk's recent fix. Please send us a note if you are able to test IPFW2 in any substantial way. The firewire module loading issue has been resolved, but the SATA issue has not. John Baldwin has a patch posted at http://people.freebsd.org/~jhb/patches/sata.patch (thanks to everyone on this list who helped debug this) Thanks, Release Engineering Team -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
