I am teaching a class and hoped to cover version 6.0 but when
6.0-BETA4-i386-bootonly.iso failed on my laptop due to some vr0 LOR
error (I found was already known[1] but not in a PR and I don't know
if it is fixed), I realized that I shouldn't use it since I can't test
the hardware in my classroom ahead of time.
Regardless of which release you are using, you really want to test on
the target hardware ahead of time.
Not very easy. I can't expect the facility to test for me since they
don't know the first thing about FreeBSD and it would be time consuming
to do remotely. And I am over 1500 miles away.
I feel comfortable with 5.4-RELEASE. I have taught over 14 classes
covering FreeBSD 4.x through 5.x and don't have opportunity to test in
most cases. A few times, I have flown in earlier day and visit classroom
and in a few cases companies/students have tested on their hardware ahead
of time.
