The first Release Candidate for the FreeBSD 7.4/8.2 release cycle is now available. For 7.4-RC1 the amd64, i386, pc98, and sparc64 architectures are available, for 8.2-RC1 those architectures plus ia64 and powerpc are available. Files suitable for creating installation media or doing FTP based installs through the network are available on the FreeBSD mirror sites. Checksums for the images are at the bottom of this message. For this Release Candidate no packages (except for the doc package set for 8.2-RC1) have been provided in any of the images. Packages will be provided with the RC2 builds. The target schedule for the releases is available here: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/8.2R/schedule.html http://www.freebsd.org/releases/7.4R/schedule.html and the wiki pages tracking the current status of the releases are: http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/8.2TODO http://wiki.freebsd.org/Releng/7.4TODO 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-RC1 is RELENG_8_2, for 7.4-RC1 it is RELENG_7_4. If you prefer SVN use "releng/8.2" or "releng/7.4". 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, or 8.2-BETA1 can upgrade as follows: # freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.2-RC1 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-RC1, 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. Substitute "7.4-RC1" for "8.2-BETA1" in the above instructions if you are targeting 7.4-RC1 instead.
