Hello,

I see the RC3 in the "Latest News" but not here: 
https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/schedule/
I hope I'm writing to the proper channels/list about this.

Hi,

There are two edge cases where the above update instructions will not work.

1) Due to the VLAN re-write in ifconfig(8), if a user is using a host that
is fully utilising VLAN tagging, the machine will not be available on the
network until the second reboot.  The user will either need IPMI/LOM access
to the console to execute the second 'freebsd-update install' command or
have a way of it being executed and automatically rebooting prior to having
access to the host on the network again.

2) If a user has a 12.2 zpool checkpoint in play and booting via BIOS
legacy mode, the machine will hang at next reboot with 'zio_read error: 5'
'ZFS: i/o error - all block copies unavailable' 'ZFS: can not read
checkpoint data.'  The machine will have to be rebooted with a boot ISO and
the checkpoint will need to be discarded and the system will boot correctly
again (rewind has been unsuccessful).  Please note: This does not appear to
be an issue where hosts use UEFI for booting operating systems or if zpool
checkpoints are destroyed prior to the update process.

Cheers,

Jason.

o 13.0-RC3 aarch64 ROCKPRO64
o 13.0-RC3 riscv64 GENERIC
o 13.0-RC3 riscv64 GENERICSD

Note regarding arm SD card images: For convenience for those without
console access to the system, a freebsd user with a password of
freebsd is available by default for ssh(1) access.  Additionally,
the root user password is set to root.  It is strongly recommended
to change the password for both users after gaining access to the
system.

Installer images and memory stick images are available here:

https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/ISO-IMAGES/13.0/

The image checksums follow at the end of this e-mail.

If you notice problems you can report them through the Bugzilla PR
system or on the -stable mailing list.

If you would like to use Git to do a source based update of an existing
system, use the "releng/13.0" branch.

A summary of changes since 13.0-RC2 includes:

o A virtual memory list locking fix has been addressed.

o A fix for systems running under VirtualBox has been addressed.

o A fix in the service(8) utility has been addressed.

o The if_wg(4) pseudo driver has been removed.

o A fix to TSO for TCP/IPV6 has been addressed in the vtnet(4) driver.

o Several other miscellaneous fixes have been addressed.

A list of changes since 12.2-RELEASE is available in the releng/13.0
release notes:

https://www.freebsd.org/releases/13.0R/relnotes.html

Please note, the release notes page is not yet complete, and will be
updated on an ongoing basis as the 13.0-RELEASE cycle progresses.

=== Virtual Machine Disk Images ===

VM disk images are available for the amd64, i386, and aarch64
architectures.  Disk images may be downloaded from the following URL
(or any of the FreeBSD download mirrors):

https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/VM-IMAGES/13.0-RC3/

The partition layout is:

~ 16 kB - freebsd-boot GPT partition type (bootfs GPT label)
~ 1 GB  - freebsd-swap GPT partition type (swapfs GPT label)
~ 20 GB - freebsd-ufs GPT partition type (rootfs GPT label)

The disk images are available in QCOW2, VHD, VMDK, and raw disk image
formats.  The image download size is approximately 135 MB and 165 MB
respectively (amd64/i386), decompressing to a 21 GB sparse image.

Note regarding arm64/aarch64 virtual machine images: a modified QEMU EFI
loader file is needed for qemu-system-aarch64 to be able to boot the
virtual machine images.  See this page for more information:

https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm64/QEMU

To boot the VM image, run:

% qemu-system-aarch64 -m 4096M -cpu cortex-a57 -M virt  \
-bios QEMU_EFI.fd -serial telnet::,server -nographic \
-drive if=none,file=VMDISK,id=hd0 \
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
-device virtio-net-device,netdev=net0 \
-netdev user,id=net0

Be sure to replace "VMDISK" with the path to the virtual machine image.

BASIC-CI images can be found at:

https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/CI-IMAGES/13.0-RC3/
