No mirrors remaining, giving up. browse to: http://update5.FreeBSD.org/ Someone has removed the whole 9.1-BETA1 directory/folder/branch making it impossible for anyone from beta1 to upgrade to rc1 using freebsd-update even thou I got one server upgraded. Can we get that restored? If not what is the CVS tag or as I noted what are the SVN details for rc1?
