The second BETA build of the 9.0-RELEASE release cycle is now
available. Since this is the first release of a brand new branch
I cross-post the announcements on both -current and -stable. But
just so you know most of the developers active in head pay more
attention to the -current mailing list. If you notice problems you
can report them through the normal Gnats PR system or on the -current
mailing list.
The 9.0-RELEASE cycle will be tracked here:
http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/9.0TODO
though the schedule listed there is now way off. BETA1 and some
other factors caused a lot of activity. We'll re-work the schedule
some time soon.
NOTE: The location of the FTP install tree and ISOs have changed
slightly. What we used for BETA2 reflects a directory structure
that would let us fully utilize building and distributing a wider
variety of architectures, based on this:
farrell 1 % cd /usr/src
farrell 2 % make targets
Supported TARGET/TARGET_ARCH pairs for world and kernel targets
amd64/amd64
arm/arm
arm/armeb
i386/i386
ia64/ia64
mips/mipsel
mips/mipseb
mips/mips64el
mips/mips64eb
mips/mipsn32eb
pc98/i386
powerpc/powerpc
powerpc/powerpc64
sparc64/sparc64
farrell 3 %
However we currently, and likely will never, do builds of everything.
The new layout does add a some extra complexity. So we're actively
discussing whether or not to change the layout from previous releases,
and if we do change it whether or not to change it this much... What's
there now can be viewed as an almost "worst case" scenario (one of the
possibilities being discussed includes having both $TARGET and
$TARGET_ARCH in the filenames). It's entirely possible we'll back off
and revert to the old layout despite that layout potentially limiting
what we can do with the new build infrastructure.
ISO images for the following architectures are available, with pathnames
given relative to the top-level of the FTP site:
amd64: .../releases/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/9.0/
i386: .../releases/i386/i386/ISO-IMAGES/9.0/
powerpc: .../releases/powerpc/powerpc/ISO-IMAGES/9.0/
powerpc64: .../releases/powerpc/powerpc64/ISO-IMAGES/9.0/
sparc64: .../releases/sparc64/sparc64/ISO-IMAGES/9.0/
Due to a bug that crept in just before BETA2 the ia64 architecture
builds failed. That bug has since been fixed.
MD5/SHA256 checksums are tacked on below.
In addition to lots of bugfixes and a few new things that crept in
since BETA1 we have done what we hope will be the final bump of
versions for the non-symbol-versioned system libraries. This time
we did not bump the version of every non-symbol-versioned library,
we just did the ones that had an API and/or ABI change.
As before one of the many new features of 9.0 we would like tested
is the new installer, so fresh installs on test systems are encouraged.
The shift in the directory layout described above is in part due to
the new installer. FTP-based installs of BETA1 would have failed,
as-is the new installer expects this for where to find the FTP
install trees:
.../releases/`uname -m`/`uname -p`/`uname -r`
We're discussing whether or not the ISO images need to tag along with
the FTP install bits to these sub-directories as part of the
re-structuring, etc.
If you would like to use csup/cvsup mechanisms to access the source
tree the branch tag to use is "." (head). If you would like to access
the source tree via SVN it is "svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/head/".
At this time FreeBSD-Update is not available, in part to help encourage
testing the installer.
