Building upon the success of > FreeBSD 5.1, this release includes: > > - Full Tier-1 support for single and multiprocessor AMD Athlon64 and > Opteron systems. > - Dynamically linked root partition for a smaller installation footprint > and better integration with the Name Service Switch subsystem. > - New and improved driver support for IDE, SATA, and 802.11a/b/g devices, > and significantly better integration with the ACPI power management > subsystem. > - Client support for the Network File System version 4 protocol. > - Experimental first-stage support for multithreaded filtering and > forwarding of IP traffic. This also provides the foundation for a > fully multi-threaded network stack in the next release of FreeBSD. > - In-box support for the latest Gnome 2.4 and KDE 3.1 desktops. > > FreeBSD 5.2 also contains a number of significant stability and performance > improvements over FreeBSD 5.1. However, it is still considered a 'New > Technology' release and might not be suitable for all users.
