--==_Exmh_1747168370P Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii FreeBSD 4.7-RC2 (the second release candidate for FreeBSD 4.7) is now available for the i386 architecture from the usual FTP sites. Both an FTP site and a "disc 1" ISO image are available, respectively from: ftp://<mirror-site>/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.7-RC2/ ftp://<mirror-site>/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/4.7/ The biggest change from 4.7-RC1 is that the ISO image has most of the packages one would expect to see on the install CD, and that the pkg_* utilities once again have the same functionality as in prior FreeBSD releases. We invite interested users to try out this snapshot and provide feedback (via the qa@ list) on issues to be fixed before 4.7-RELEASE, currently scheduled for 1 October 2002. Depending on the feedback we get (and the magnitude of any remaining bugfixes required before release), we may do another release candidate snapshot before the release. Before reporting problems, please check the QA page for this release-in-progress, to make sure that a problem has not already been encountered: http://www.freebsd.org/releases/4.7R/qa.html FreeBSD 4.7-RC2 for the alpha architecture is being built now and should be available shortly. Many thanks to Sentex Communications for making available a fast, well-connected i386 machine for release builds. Bruce A.
