All, if you followed the development of FreeSBIE 2.0 a bit, you should remember that, back in Semptember, I said that FreeSBIE 2.0 would have been the last of a series of four ISO images. Three images were already published: FreeSBIE GMV back in August, FreeSBIE LVC in October, FreeSBIE 2.0-BETA in November. Well, circustamces make me release a fourth ISO image which is *not* FreeSBIE 2.0, but FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 (Release Candidate 1). This is due to the number of bugs which had been fixed after 2.0-BETA was release. If no major bugs are found, FreeSBIE 2.0 is going to be released not too long after FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE has been released. Hopefully you will be able to put a FreeSBIE 2.0 CD-ROM under your Christmas tree. :)
FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 is based on the RELENG_6_2 branch of the FreeBSD source tree and on the RELEASE_6_2_0 branch of the ports tree. Testing the ISO image, finding bugs and reporting them back to me or to the freesbie@gufi.org mailing list are the foci for those who want to give this ISO image a try, and I hope many of you will. There is still a lot of free space on the ISO image, so feel free to suggest additional software to include. FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 can be downloaded from our mirrors: ftp://ftp.freesbie.org/pub/Freesbie/2.0-RC1/ ftp://ftp2.freesbie.org/pub/FreeSBIE/2.0-RC1/ ftp://ftp.gr.freesbie.org/pub/FreeSBIE/2.0-RC1/ ftp://ftp.be.freesbie.org/pub/freesbie/2.0-RC1/ ftp://ftp2.ie.freesbie.org/pub/freesbie/2.0-RC1/ ftp://ftp.fr.freesbie.org/freesbie/2.0-RC1/ ftp://ftp8.de.freesbie.org/unix/FreeSBIE/2.0-RC1 MD5 checksum for the ISO image is: MD5 (FreeSBIE-2.0-RC1-20061123.iso) = 9dfced489f6fd083f10b14e23c25079 Thank you in advance for testing FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 Best Regards -- Matteo Riondato FreeBSD Committer (http://www.freebsd.org) G.U.F.I.
