Date: Thu, 27 Jul 1995 16:31:31 -0700 Message-ID: <2997.806887891@time.cdrom.com> From: "Jordan K. Hubbard" Sender: announce-owner@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Now available on freefall and ftp.freebsd.org: 2.1.0-950726-SNAP This supercedes the previous snap, 2.0.5-950622-SNAP. Hopefully the next snap or two will also see the introduction of a new upgrade-in-place procedure, assuming that I can finish writing it in time. I'll also offer a "retrofit kit" for 2.0.5 which will supply the appropriate files for allowing the upgrade procedure in 2.1 to operate with it. This mainly involves keeping extra information around about which files come with the release or SNAP so that the upgrade knows what to preserve and what can be simply replaced. This feature is NOT in this snapshot, I'm just giving you a preview of what's coming.. Please let me know how this snap works for you, either good or bad! Thanks!

Yeah, it's got a '1' instead of a '0.5' - It has fewer digits, so it's probably not as good. Personally, I'm holding out for 2.1.1 or 2.1.1.5, which Jordan will probably have up for FTP before most of us have finished FTP'ing 2.1.

CHANGES -- Minnie is mirroring FreeBSD-2.0.5-ALPHA, and the packages-2.0. The hyperlinked source tree is now _all_ of FreeBSD 2.0.5 /sys. Web Documents ------------- All of the BSD-related information on minnie can be accessed through the Web at http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/BSD-info/BSD.html. There are many hotlinks to the FreeBSD and NetBSD web pages. Minnie has web pages about: + BSD-related Usenet news, e.g the end of the UCB/USL litigation. + Interactive access to a Usenet News archive on *BSD. + A hyperlinked version of the FreeBSD 2.0.5 kernel source code. Bsdnews ------- Minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au keeps an archive of the Usenet news on *BSD, taken from the newsgroups comp.os.386bsd.* and comp.unix.bsd. This archive can be accessed either via telnet or through the WorldWide Web. You can do two things: + search through the news subject lines for a particular pattern + retrieve particular articles To do this by telnet, telnet to minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au and login as `bsdnews'. To do this through the Web, connect to the Web URL above and follow the link to the News Web interface page. Ftp --- Minnie has the following BSD-related stuff available by anonymous ftp: + FreeBSD - FreeBSD 2.0.5-ALPHA, and some previous versions. + bsdnews - The Usenet news about *BSD, from June 1992 onwards. + daemons - Gif images of the BSD Daemons. These are copyright by Marshall Kirk McKusick. + phillip - NFS mount of some other *BSD stuff, which is maintained by Phillip Musumeci here at ADFA. + 4.4BSD-Lite - The entire source tree for 4.4BSD-Lite. + net2 - The kernel source tree for the Net/2 distribution. Please ftp from a site closer to you, if there is one. Australia has a single link to the Internet, and it's usually saturated.
