The second of the Release Candidates for the FreeBSD 8.0 release cycle
is now available. At this point we feel most of what has been
discovered during public testing that is feasible to fix as part of the
release process has been addressed. So the current plan is to have
8.0-RC3 in about two weeks.
Details about the current target schedule along with much more detail
about the current status of the release is available here:
http://wiki.freebsd.org/8.0TODO
If you notice problems you can report them through the normal Gnats PR
system or on the freebsd-current mailing list. I do cross-post
announcements to freebsd-stable because this particular release is
"about to become a stable branch" but when it comes to watching for
issues related to the release most of the developers pay more attention
to the freebsd-current list.
ISO images for all supported architectures are available on the FTP
sites, and a "memory stick" image is available for amd64/i386
architectures. For amd64/i386 architectures the cdrom and memstick
images include the documentation packages but no other packages. The
DVD image includes the packages that will probably be available on the
official release media but is subject to change between now and release.
For sparc64 there is now a livefs cdrom, disc1 includes the
documentation packages, and the DVD image has the set of packages that
currently build for sparc64 (which is a sub-set of the set provided for
amd64/i386).
If you are using csup/cvsup methods to update an older system the branch
tag to use is RELENG_8_0.
The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64
systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running 7.0-RELEASE,
7.1-RELEASE, 7.2-RELEASE, 8.0-BETA1, 8.0-BETA2, 8.0-BETA3, 8.0-BETA4, or
8.0-RC1 can upgrade as follows:
=20
# freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.0-RC2
=20
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. Systems running 8.0-BETA3 may
print the warning
INDEX-OLD.all: Invalid arguments
when downloading updates; this warning is a harmless bug (fixed in
8.0-BETA4) and can be safely ignored.
# freebsd-update install
=20
The system must be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before continui=
ng.
=20
# shutdown -r now
=20
After rebooting, freebsd-update needs to be run again to install the new
userland components:
# freebsd-update install
=20
At this point, users of systems being upgraded from FreeBSD 8.0-BETA2 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. See:
http://www.daemonology.net/blog/2009-07-11-freebsd-update-to-8.0-beta1.html
for mode details. 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
=20
Finally, reboot into 8.0-RC2:
=20
# shutdown -r now
