 1. What's new since 4.1-RELEASE
 --------------------------------------
 
 1.1. KERNEL CHANGES
 -------------------
 
 The tap driver, a virtual Ethernet device driver for bridged 
 configurations, has been added.
 
 accept_filters, a kernel feature to reduce overheads when accepting
 and reading new connections on listening sockets, has been added.
 
 POSIX.1b Shared Memory Objects are now supported.  The implementation
 uses regular files, but automatically enables the MAP_NOSYNC flag
 when they are mmap(2)ed.
 
 The ata(4) driver now has support for ATA100 controllers.
 
 The ti(4) driver now supports the Alteon AceNIC 1000baseT Gigabit 
 Ethernet and Netgear GA620T 1000baseT Gigabit Ethernet cards.
 
 The ng_bridge(4) node type has been added to the netgraph subsystem.
 Miscellaneous bug fixes and enhancements have also been made.
 
 
 1.2. SECURITY FIXES
 -------------------
 
 1.3. USERLAND CHANGES
 ---------------------
 
 GDB now supports hardware watchpoints.
 
 sendmail upgraded from version 8.9.3 to version 8.11.0.  Important changes
 include: new default file locations (see
 /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README); newaliases is limited to root and
 trusted users; and the MSA port (587) is turned on by default.  See
 /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/RELEASE_NOTES for more information.
 
 routed(8) has been updated to version 2.22.
 
 The truncate(1) utility, which truncates or extends the length
 of files, has been added.
 
 syslogd(8) can take a -n option to disable DNS queries for every
 request.
 
 kenv(1), a command to dump the kernel environment, has been added. 
 
 The behavior of periodic(8) is now controlled by /etc/defaults/periodic.conf
 and /etc/periodic.conf.
 
 logger(1) can now send messages directly to a remote syslog.
 
 OpenSSL has been upgraded to 0.9.5a, which includes numerous bugfixes
 and enhancements.
 
 finger(1) now has the ability to support fingering aliases, via the
 finger.conf(5) file.
 
 RSA Security has waived all patent rights to the RSA algorithm (two
 weeks before the patent was due to expire).  As a result, the native
 OpenSSL implementation of the RSA algorithm is now activated by
 default, and the rsaref port and librsaUSA are no longer
 required for USA residents.
 
 sshd now enabled by default on new installs.
 
 The xl(4) driver now supports the 3Com 3C556 and 3C556B MiniPCI
 adapters used on some laptops.
 
 killall(1) is now a C program, rather than a Perl script.  As a
 result, killall's -m option now uses the regular expression syntax of
 regex(3), rather than that of perl(1).
 
 boot98cfg(8), a PC-98 boot manager installation and configuration
 utility, has been added.
 
 Binutils have been upgraded to 2.10.0.
 
 libreadline has been upgraded to 4.1.
 
 The ifconfig(8) command can set the link-layer address of an interface. 
 
 bktr(4) driver update to 2.1.5.  New tuner types have been added, 
 and improvememts to the KLD module and to memory allocation have been
 made.
 
 
 2. Supported Configurations
 ---------------------------
 FreeBSD currently runs on a wide variety of ISA, VLB, EISA, MCA and PCI
 bus based PC's, ranging from 386sx to Pentium class machines (though the
 386sx is not recommended).  Support for generic IDE or ESDI drive
 configurations, various SCSI controller, network and serial cards is
 also provided.

 3. Obtaining FreeBSD
 --------------------
 
 You may obtain FreeBSD in a variety of ways:
 
 
 3.1. FTP/Mail
 -------------
 
 You can ftp FreeBSD and any or all of its optional packages from
 `ftp.freebsd.org' - the official FreeBSD release site.
 
 For other locations that mirror the FreeBSD software see the file
 MIRROR.SITES.  Please ftp the distribution from the site closest (in
 networking terms) to you.  Additional mirror sites are always welcome!
 Contact freebsd-admin@FreeBSD.org for more details if you'd like to 
 become an official mirror site.
 
 If you do not have access to the Internet and electronic mail is your
 only recourse, then you may still fetch the files by sending mail to
 `ftpmail@ftpmail.vix.com' - putting the keyword "help" in your message
 to get more information on how to fetch files using this mechanism.
 Please do note, however, that this will end up sending many *tens of
 megabytes* through the mail and should only be employed as an absolute
 LAST resort!
 
 
-3.2. CDROM
-----------
-
-FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE and 3.x-RELEASE CDs may be ordered on CDROM from:
-
-        Walnut Creek CDROM

-
-Or via the Internet from orders@cdrom.com or http://www.cdrom.com.
-Their current catalog can be obtained via ftp from:
-
-        ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/cdrom/catalog
-
-Cost per -RELEASE CD is $39.95 or $24.95 with a FreeBSD subscription.
-FreeBSD SNAPshot CDs, when available, are $39.95 or $14.95 with a

 4. Upgrading from previous releases of FreeBSD
 ----------------------------------------------
 
 If you're upgrading from a previous release of FreeBSD, most likely
 it's 3.0 and there may be some issues affecting you, depending
 of course on your chosen method of upgrading.  There are two popular
 ways of upgrading FreeBSD distributions:
 
         o Using sources, via /usr/src
         o Using sysinstall's (binary) upgrade option.
 
 Please read the UPGRADE.TXT file for more information, preferably
 before beginning an upgrade.
 
 
 5. Reporting problems, making suggestions, submitting code.
 -----------------------------------------------------------
 Your suggestions, bug reports and contributions of code are always
 valued - please do not hesitate to report any problems you may find
 (preferably with a fix attached, if you can!).
 
 The preferred method to submit bug reports from a machine with
 Internet mail connectivity is to use the send-pr command or use the CGI
 script at http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html.  Bug reports
 will be dutifully filed by our faithful bugfiler program and you can
 be sure that we'll do our best to respond to all reported bugs as soon
 as possible.  Bugs filed in this way are also visible on our WEB site
 in the support section and are therefore valuable both as bug reports
 and as "signposts" for other users concerning potential problems to
 watch out for.
 
 If, for some reason, you are unable to use the send-pr command to
 submit a bug report, you can try to send it to:
 
                 freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org
 
 Note that send-pr itself is a shell script that should be easy to move
 even onto a totally different system.  We much prefer if you could use
 this interface, since it make it easier to keep track of the problem
 reports.  However, before submitting, please try to make sure whether
 the problem might have already been fixed since.
 
 
 Otherwise, for any questions or tech support issues, please send mail to:
 
                 freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 If you're tracking the -stable development efforts, you should
 definitely join the -stable mailing list, in order to keep abreast
 of recent developments and changes that may affect the way you
 use and maintain the system:
 
 		freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Additionally, being a volunteer effort, we are always happy to have
 extra hands willing to help - there are already far more desired
 enhancements than we'll ever be able to manage by ourselves!  To
 contact us on technical matters, or with offers of help, please send
 mail to:
 
                 freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 Please note that these mailing lists can experience *significant*
 amounts of traffic and if you have slow or expensive mail access and
 are only interested in keeping up with significant FreeBSD events, you
 may find it preferable to subscribe instead to:
 
                 freebsd-announce@FreeBSD.org
 
 
 All of the mailing lists can be freely joined by anyone wishing
 to do so.  Send mail to MajorDomo@FreeBSD.org and include the keyword
 `help' on a line by itself somewhere in the body of the message.  This
 will give you more information on joining the various lists, accessing
 archives, etc.  There are a number of mailing lists targeted at
 special interest groups not mentioned here, so send mail to majordomo
 and ask about them!
