I'm in favour of this change. Having different tools (some modern and
updated, others deprecated and limited) in base to do the same task can
confuse the users. If possible move them to ports for people still using
them, with a clear deprecation warning.

I like the possibility to entirely disable compression on log files, or
to select a specific compression algorithm, but I don't think we should
disable compression by default because there is a filesystem that
supports compression.

Important note to freebsd-update(8) users:  Please be sure to follow the
instructions in the EN-13:04.freebsd-update errata notice here before
upgrading the system to 10.0-BETA2:


I'd say these instructions extracted partially from the advisory are 
very very confusing as written. If you have a 8.x or 9.x RELEASE all you 
have to do is updating to the latest minor-release-patchset and then do 
a 'freebsd-update upgrade -r 10.0-BETA2', like for every other major 
release upgrade.
I don't know who will manually patch a binary update tool if it's 
building FreeBSD from sources, but anyway it should be the last note 
while in the announcement it seems to be the only way to do the upgrade.

The problem was that the instructions were not verbatim, you omitted

===
1) Upgrade your system to a supported FreeBSD stable or release / security
branch (releng) dated after the correction date.

2) To update your present system via a source code patch:

Hiroki Sato ha scritto:
 1. Multi-instance support
 
 In the implementation, load_rc_config() reads variables for all 
 instances and run_rc_command() runs each instance in order.  When 
 doing rc.d/foo stop, run_rc_command() stops the instances in 
 reverse order.

I haven't looked at the implementation, but a useful feature that's
usually missing is these multi-instance implementations and that is
available in the multi-rc.d scripts scenario (take tomcat7 rc script
as an example) is the ability to start/stop a single instance. Not
always the instances are related each other, sometime they serve
completely different purposes/applications and would be very useful to
allow starting/stopping them independently. If we can get the best
from the two implementations it'll be a win-win solution.

 2. Self-contained rc.d script

I like the idea of defaults inside the scripts, but I like also a file
that lists all available knobs with default values. If it can be
automatically generated from the scripts for human reading purpose
only, I'll appreciate it.

 it's not difficult to fetch the net/isc-dhcp31-server package but for

 it can be annoying.

If you (people) don't know how to use ports/packages probably you
shouldn't use FreeBSD. And I hardly think that installing a port

why 3.1 and not 4.1? Why not bundling also apache? etc., etc.

Lack of ataraid means no more arX devices, right? I'd say it's not fatal

 ataraid(4) has served it's
 purpose, tiding us over until GEOM RAID facilities were in place.  Now it's

It doesn't seem to me that sysinstall supports gmirror or gstripe, so

I was trying to boot my net4501 board with PXE.
This worked like a charm with pxeboot compiled on -STABLE, but
using -CURRENT to build it my net4501 continuously reboot just after
the DHCP/TFTP phase (it appears something like POST12345 and
then reboots). Any hint?

rebooting...the pxeboot has been built only with

BOOT_COMCONSOLE_SPEED=57600 -DLOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT (on command line)
parameters. With -STABLE no problems arise.
