+ Subject: 4.1-RELEASE now available from ftp.freebsd.org
I'm very pleased to announce the availability of FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE, +the very latest in 4.x-STABLE branch technology. Following the +release of FreeBSD 4.0 in March, 2000, many bugs were fixed, important +security issues dealt with, and quite a few new features added. +Please see the release notes for more information.
+ +The 4.1-RELEASE is available for +i386 +and +alpha +right now and can be installed directly over the net using the boot floppies +or copied to a local NFS/ftp server. ISO images will also be provided +later (see below).
+ +ISO (CD) ImagesISO images of the installation CD will be made available by August 1st +2000, after the bits have undergone a bit more integration testing. +This additional delay is necessary given that the ISO images are so +large (~650MB each) and are not something which many people want to +transfer more than once. A follow-up announcement will be sent once +the ISO images are in place, so please don't send me email asking +where they are or when they'll be ready. When they're ready, they'll +be uploaded and an announcement will be sent out.
+ +We also can't promise that all the mirror sites will carry these large +ISO images, but they will at least be available from:
+ +ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.1-install.i
+so
+ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/alpha/ISO-IMAGES/4.1-install.is
+o
If you can't afford the CDs, are impatient, or just want to use it for +evangelism purposes, then by all means download the ISOs, otherwise please +do continue to support the FreeBSD project by purchasing one of its +official CD releases from BSDi. FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE can be ordered as a +4 CD set from The FreeBSD Mall +from where it will soon be shipping. Each CD sets contains the FreeBSD +installation and application package bits for either the x86 or the +alpha architecture (each architecture has its own CD set). For a set of +distfiles used to build ports in the ports collection, please see also the +FreeBSD Toolkit, a 6 CD set containing all such extra bits which we can no +longer fit on the 4 CD sets. You can also order by phone, postal mail, +FAX or email at:
+ ++ BSDi + 4041 Pike Lane, #F + Concord CA, 94520 USA + Phone: +1 925 674-0783 + Fax: +1 925 674-0821 + Tech Support: +1 925 603-1234 + Email: orders@wccdrom.com + WWW: http://www.wccdrom.com/ ++ +
