This effect of this is that the boot.flp image will not work on machines where the RAM ends at 0x400000, which translates to machines with 4Mb Ram and no remapping. We will be working on this problem today.

As a result of the recent feedback we have had about the origional 2.0.5-RELEASE, we have gone poking and found a couple of bugs on the origional boot.flp image. There is now a /pub/FreeBSD/2.0.5-RELEASE/UPDATES directory on ftp.cdrom.com and freefall.cdrom.com with a version of boot.flp which will fix the following problems: - The kernel was too big to boot on 4Mb machines. - It was possible to specify the filesystem mount points in such a way that the program would mount the filesystem before the parent filesystem was mounted (e.g. it would mount /usr/local and then /usr) As the CDROM has not gone to replication yet, this updated floppy image will be appearing on the CDROM. Sorry to all those who had problems with the first boot floppy set - I will personally nail Jordan to his chair and nail the chair to the floor in front of his computer the next time we roll a release!

Date: Tue, 13 Jun 1995 19:02:23 +0200 From: Mark Murray Sender: announce-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hello World! (In particular, that part of it ouside the USA and Canada) I have (with official sanction of the organisation concerned) a LEGAL site for the distribution of DES, crypt and Kerberos code. The secure code (crypt) is _identical_ to the US code. It originated in South Africa and Australia, and has never been to the US, so it is totally kosher. The Kerberos (eBones actually) code stared out life like the secure stuff, but as the US code was worked on, the changes were tracked with code legally available outside the US, so that too is kosher. There are minor differences between the US and the "foreign" eBones, but it is ALL in comments and whitespace, so the compiled code should be the same barring CVS-type strings. The site is skeleton.mikom.csir.co.za (and mirrors mentioned in the distributions) in the directory ~ftp/pub/FreeBSD, and this site is running wu-ftpd, so to get a whole directory you _should_ be able to type get .tar or .tar.gz for compression. I have (at the the moment) 4 directories each containing crypto code for a different version of FreeBSD: ~ftp/pub/FreeBSD/1.1-RELEASE ~ftp/pub/FreeBSD/1.1.5.1-RELEASE ~ftp/pub/FreeBSD/2.0-RELEASE ~ftp/pub/FreeBSD/2.0.5-RELEASE Each directory contains two subdirectories - src and distfiles. `src' has all the source unpacked and in the individual files for those who need just a piece. `distfiles' contains the distribution tarballs that you would need for your installation process. Many thanks to the kind folks at the CSIR's Program for Network Design and Security. My email address is live (not dialup) but I do not generally read it during working hours. (My timezone is 2 hours ahead of GMT, and I work on average from 8:30am till 6:30pm Mon-Fri local time). Enjoy!
