FreeBSD 11.0-RC2 Now Available
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 The second RC build of the 11.0-RELEASE release cycle is now available. Installation images are available for: o 11.0-RC2 amd64 GENERIC o 11.0-RC2 i386 GENERIC o 11.0-RC2 powerpc GENERIC o 11.0-RC2 powerpc64 GENERIC64 o 11.0-RC2 sparc64 GENERIC o 11.0-RC2 armv6 BANANAPI o 11.0-RC2 armv6 BEAGLEBONE o 11.0-RC2 armv6 CUBIEBOARD o 11.0-RC2 armv6 CUBIEBOARD2 o 11.0-RC2 armv6 CUBOX-HUMMINGBOARD o 11.0-RC2 armv6 GUMSTIX o 11.0-RC2 armv6 RPI-B o 11.0-RC2 armv6 RPI2 o 11.0-RC2 armv6 PANDABOARD o 11.0-RC2 armv6 WANDBOARD o 11.0-RC2 aarch64 GENERIC Note regarding arm/armv6 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, which 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: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/11.0/ 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 SVN to do a source based update of an existing system, use the "releng/11.0" branch. A summary of changes since RC1 includes: o Support for 'nat global' has been restored in ipfw(4). o A hang in vtnet(4) when max_virtqueue_pairs > VTNET_MAX_QUEUE_PAIR has been fixed. o Detection bridges that are not really HotPlug capable has been fixed. o Various clang fixes. o L2 caching for UDP over IPv6 has been disabled. o Various build fixes. o Various other fixes since RC1. A list of changes since 10.0-RELEASE are available on the releng/11.0 release notes: https://www.freebsd.org/releases/11.0R/relnotes.html Please note, the release notes page is not yet complete, and will be updated on an ongoing basis as the 11.0-RELEASE cycle progresses. === Virtual Machine Disk Images === VM disk images are available for the amd64 and i386 architectures. Disk images may be downloaded from the following URL (or any of the FreeBSD FTP mirrors): ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/VM-IMAGES/11.0-RC2/ 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. === Amazon EC2 AMI Images === FreeBSD/amd64 EC2 AMIs are available in the following regions: us-east-1 region: ami-03086b14 us-west-1 region: ami-3af8ba5a us-west-2 region: ami-529b4c32 sa-east-1 region: ami-e9891885 eu-west-1 region: ami-4cc2b43f eu-central-1 region: ami-af9c6cc0 ap-northeast-1 region: ami-6fc20c0e ap-northeast-2 region: ami-c8ac79a6 ap-southeast-1 region: ami-fdc41c9e ap-southeast-2 region: ami-77cef914 === Vagrant Images === FreeBSD/amd64 images are available on the Hashicorp Atlas site, and can be installed by running: % vagrant init freebsd/FreeBSD-11.0-RC2 % vagrant up === Upgrading === The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of amd64 and i386 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running earlier FreeBSD releases can upgrade as follows: # freebsd-update upgrade -r 11.0-RC2 During this process, freebsd-update(8) may ask the user to help by merging some configuration files or by confirming that the automatically performed merging was done correctly. # freebsd-update install The system must be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before continuing. # shutdown -r now After rebooting, freebsd-update needs to be run again to install the new userland components: # freebsd-update install It is recommended to rebuild and install all applications if possible, especially if upgrading from an earlier FreeBSD release, for example, FreeBSD 9.x. Alternatively, the user can install misc/compat9x and other compatibility libraries, afterwards the system must be rebooted into the new userland: # shutdown -r now
