--GvXjxJ+pjyke8COw Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline The first RC build of the 8.4-RELEASE release cycle is now available on the FTP servers for the amd64, i386, and pc98 architectures. The SHA256/MD5 sums are tacked on to the bottom of this message. The ISO images and, for architectures that support it, the memory stick images are available here: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/8.4/ (or any of the FreeBSD mirror sites). If you notice problems you can report them through the normal Gnats PR system or here on the -stable mailing list. If you would like to use SVN to do a source based update of an existing system use "releng/8.4". If you would like to use csup/cvsup mechanisms instead the branch tag to use is "RELENG_8_4". Please be aware that cvsup and CVS are both deprecated, and while upgrades using CVS or cvsup may work now they will not be supported for security updates through the life of 8.4. Important notice when upgrading from 8.4-BETA1 to 8.4-RC1: - There was an accidental breakage in the OpenSSL ABI in the BETA1 build that was fixed before this RC build. Applications built against OpenSSL may need to be rebuilt after upgrading to 8.4-RC1 from 8.4-BETA1. The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running earlier FreeBSD releases can upgrade as follows: # freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.4-RC1 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: # freebsd-update install It is recommended to rebuild and install all applications if possible, especially if upgrading from an earlier FreeBSD release, for example, FreeBSD 7.x. Alternatively, the user can install misc/compat7x and other compatibility libraries, afterwards the system must be rebooted into the new userland: # shutdown -r now Finally, after rebooting, freebsd-update needs to be run again to remove stale files: # freebsd-update install Checksums: SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-bootonly.iso) = a5f1bce4c5aefeef12353da6f637275310df6315417a1c9b6022da4106ea4c4c SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-disc1.iso) = 9adf9e15ff288085a53831ad238cd7320225f186dfb3faac11ba2189689f4678 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-disc2.iso) = faad5199011bd23302b2b8916b7a0abbd0f755e15bdb90a289972e7dfc3c752a SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-disc3.iso) = 9c907f4d74f28965a8a6ce683a946f9aeaba37dbbd97ca63f7fc3f28b839d9bd SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-dvd1.iso) = 6f6c706ea1cb6f045d0df596bf85873784e3b42bb22ae3fe26d54deb4115f63e SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-livefs.iso) = 1110f7ced80df95fb8354bac2614c866dcc608fc9c1c1b823d832d3cb93ce16a SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-memstick.img) = 10f3b891df47345c800d1210a1881baf473114aaea9a44d4ce0f86e5ba09221f SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-bootonly.iso) = 116b34780cf6c684fb6ac541630d2e863613bd66447f894b77ce682ba2bedb38 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-disc1.iso) = ba1d20cc407d392e61469ec4b5c49b68187317a651165bf8693d690eaf1c8539 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-disc2.iso) = 1b35d1b3430910a6c558f36d4417bc8a5cc030f3233f2f1a27f9732971f71aed SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-disc3.iso) = a948ee4707450f55b416fc42972629dafe84d22ec14ecf5f89772f07e44e0d31 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-dvd1.iso) = 32bc73f2881baf4cde80d04c830604643dfc1dd33ec6cfccd72cbe40cb7f8584 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-livefs.iso) = e9e280849935605f595380ce0455720332598c6ab4a2a57cee38c13cb3d0e8a6 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-memstick.img) = 5aed82b6679a92448096287128075e636f6cd34f338e93a39ee8610fa995fb83 SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-pc98-bootonly.iso) = 7ad9faea2fb1276b42c104b608a6fac6d0a5b83a56b952eab9c7c6165ffd819f SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-pc98-disc1.iso) = 191ec9361e64b205354de0a7522f4302dc35bb8e167e393df886040b5a14476b SHA256 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-pc98-livefs.iso) = f38592cd6b4336a3e6444335dc6e9cc1ac173063481878c82105e4af487259f6 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-bootonly.iso) = 5f39ee60f64e11d1e1098272926a7c40 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-disc1.iso) = cdc885b419049ce2a324e3c491c53c0c MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-disc2.iso) = f82e6b3067c16888636558c7070c4a0d MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-disc3.iso) = e3d031665ee0f7bd3108921fab665cd4 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-dvd1.iso) = a721eba1bb0ff6b415c96f063b6f50f6 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-livefs.iso) = 2bab297001dce4b5d8b75cc9adf0bc49 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-amd64-memstick.img) = 32d73c87cd326ba33d1710d1d80924a6 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-bootonly.iso) = 985a7dcfa7e7832c4b078c28140889f0 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-disc1.iso) = 20bcbd7b4c842e23c4b40b7d95cb7189 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-disc2.iso) = 99cdd663e248f7153f83ef2efca78126 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-disc3.iso) = 0fdc4e0d4becafed7becea7e283dc956 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-dvd1.iso) = 9452ea665417bf8e3b37e6a2df9e0471 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-livefs.iso) = 3958875d5849efb7d354b5ad00cfa974 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-i386-memstick.img) = 295086f72d72f10d1212a09bcb36f6f0 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-pc98-bootonly.iso) = 2ea56e5a085ba73c9caae9ddc739d915 MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-pc98-disc1.iso) = 31ecd8bcfbb97ea38b7833ba4fe9d41e MD5 (FreeBSD-8.4-RC1-pc98-livefs.iso) = 6699df5f2691976843d273ef000a861e Glen --GvXjxJ+pjyke8COw Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJRZevOAAoJEFJPDDeguUajINAH/iD++JUsWMDEoysvmNJx9irY Uwq5ufCOdO1hTKjfmikmo5xNuFce2/yIqDSNFlUabWRQNUoUdlMp1wWJm0Vk7PVP hfxqZxJcONu5X9Xs/QaRrowq5QGLTBlxe0AfBr7QJjS17RBu/RU02vDtWMwRnvq0 Lh5B8h1JnOWiMc6RoRsmawwgxfczkhwFtdVChb8yVxZeYEE9YG6Us+GiQPbfeqAs heUJpspTqoarjQh1x/LNCCNf/ilDoti4xKCltjpW2++dIyJRqUntIyNi0utXptR3 DYNyB26VbH3I5rM+seNpuPMto/ZEkjLGAkfs0kpk+Eg2ThzI6sxnC5T25FpvMJs= =F0df -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --GvXjxJ+pjyke8COw--
