The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the + availability of FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE. This is the second release + from the 8-STABLE branch which improves on the functionality of + FreeBSD 8.0 and introduces some new features. Some of the + highlights:
+ +zfsloader added
zpool version of ZFS subsystem updated to version 14
NFSv4 ACL support in UFS and ZFS; support added to cp(1), find(1), + getfacl(1), mv(1), and setfacl(1) utilities
UltraSPARC IV/IV+, SPARC64 V support
SMP support in PowerPC G5
BIND 9.6.2-P2
sendmail updated to 8.14.4
OpenSSH updated to 5.4p1
GNOME 2.30.1, KDE 4.4.5
For a complete list of new features and known problems, please + see the online release notes and errata list available at:
+ +For more information about FreeBSD release engineering + activities please see:
+ + + +FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, ia64, + pc98, powerpc, and sparc64 architectures.
+ +FreeBSD 8.1 can be installed from bootable ISO images or over the + network. Some architectures (currently amd64 and i386) also + support installing from a USB memory stick. The required files + can be downloaded via FTP or BitTorrent as described in the + sections below. While some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not + carry all architectures, they will all generally contain the more + common ones such as amd64 and i386.
+ +MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO images are included at + the bottom of this message.
+ +The purpose of the images provided as part of the release are as + follows:
+ +This contains everything necessary to install the base + FreeBSD operating system, a collection of pre-built packages, + and the documentation. It also supports booting into a + "livefs" based rescue mode. This should be all you need if + you can burn and use DVD-sized media.
This contains the base FreeBSD operating system and the + documentation packages for CDROM-sized media. There are no + other packages.
This contains support for booting into a "livefs" based + rescue mode but does not support doing an install from the CD + itself. It is meant to help rescue an existing system but + could be used to do a network based install if + necessary.
This supports booting a machine using the CDROM drive but + does not contain the support for installing FreeBSD from the + CD itself. You would need to perform a network based install + (e.g. from an FTP server) after booting from the CD.
This can be written to an USB memory stick (flash drive) + and used to do an install on machines capable of booting off + USB drives. It also supports booting into a "livefs" based + rescue mode. The documentation packages are provided but no + other packages.
+ +As one example of how to use the memstick image, assuming the + USB drive appears as /dev/da0 on your machine something like + this should work:
+ +# dd if=8.1-RELEASE-amd64-memstick.img of=/dev/da0 bs=10240 conv=sync+ +
Be careful to make sure you get the target (of=) correct.
+FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM or DVD from + several vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD + 8.1-based products is:
+ +FreeBSD Mall, Inc. http://www.freebsdmall.com/
8.1-RELEASE ISOs are available via BitTorrent. A collection of + torrent files to download the images is available at:
+ + + +At the time of this announcement the following FTP sites have + FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE available.
+ +However before trying these sites please check your regional + mirror(s) first by going to:
+ +ftp://ftp.<yourdomain>.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD
Any additional mirror sites will be labeled + ftp2, ftp3 and so on.
+ +More information about FreeBSD mirror sites can be found at:
+ + + +For instructions on installing FreeBSD, please see Chapter 2 of + The FreeBSD Handbook. It provides a complete installation + walk-through for users new to FreeBSD, and can be found online + at:
+ + + +The procedure for doing a source code based update is described in the + FreeBSD Handbook:
+ +http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/synching.html
http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
The branch tag to use for updating the source is + RELENG_8_1 for CVS. For SVN use releng/8.1.
+ +The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 + and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems + running 7.[0123]-RELEASE, 8.0-RELEASE, 8.1-BETA1, or 8.1-RC[12] + can upgrade as follows:
+ +# freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.1-RELEASE+ +
During this process, FreeBSD Update 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, and the system needs to be rebooted + again:
+ +# freebsd-update install+ +
At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD + 7.3-RELEASE or earlier will be prompted by freebsd-update to + rebuild all third-party applications (e.g., ports installed from + the ports tree) due to updates in system libraries.
+ +After updating installed third-party applications (and again, + only if freebsd-update printed a message indicating that this was + necessary), run freebsd-update again so that it can delete the old + (no longer used) system libraries:
+ +# freebsd-update install+ +
Finally, reboot into 8.1-RELEASE:
+ +# shutdown -r now+ +
The FreeBSD Security Team has designated FreeBSD 8.1 an + "Extended" support release and currently plans to support FreeBSD + 8.1 until July 31, 2012. For more information on the Security + Team and their support of the various FreeBSD branches see:
+ + + +Many companies donated equipment, network access, or man-hours to + support the release engineering activities for FreeBSD 8.1 + including The FreeBSD Foundation, Hewlett-Packard, Yahoo!, NetApp, + Internet Systems Consortium, and Sentex Communications.
