We expect the next test build to be the first if the Release Candidates, RC1. Since BETA3 many bugs that were identified from testing done so far were addressed. Some of the bigger issues were an mbuf leak along with work done in the general IPv6, jail, and usb subsystems. Issues in other areas have been addressed as well. Due to the issues identified in this early phase of testing the schedule for release has been pushed back. The current target for the release itself is September 29th, with two RC builds between now and then. 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, (sparc64 was uploaded a short time ago and may not be available on some sites yet) and a "memory stick" image is available for amd64/i386 architectures. For amd64/i386 architectures the cdrom and memstick images include the documentation packages this time but no other packages. The DVD image includes a first rough pass at what packages will be available but the list will certainly change between now and release. None of the other images include packages. If you are using csup/cvsup methods to update an older system the branch tag to use is RELENG_8. 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, or 8.0-BETA3 can upgrade as follows: =20 # freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.0-BETA4 =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 7.x 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-BETA4: =20 # shutdown -r now MD5/SHA256 checksums for the image files: MD5 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-bootonly.iso) =3D 4215023f0492e959be3c643fef44d448 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-disc1.iso) =3D f767d33bbaa0af665e33992c1f43cc39 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-dvd1.iso) =3D ac66ea49d75908607c0fe984f88b7a50 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-livefs.iso) =3D ead1d6a75cce81a24d3d3b8f0cbc8faf MD5 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-memstick.img) =3D 69629e60befe708b4373871af23d61a3 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-i386-bootonly.iso) =3D db2e16a1a807d124a693743ca7a75992 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-i386-disc1.iso) =3D 30508ce737aa29d0fe2baf2f450ddc83 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-i386-dvd1.iso) =3D 307b28a35bcfbb547ce3afbbad051e89 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-i386-livefs.iso) =3D d65f152bfbd62ea5e3c2e1858bbb89ee MD5 (8.0-BETA4-i386-memstick.img) =3D 5d262034175abd24b27ec7110ebd88a7 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-bootonly.iso) =3D 5147bd2c2dba2a72ec7f36eb8af0ccb6 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-disc1.iso) =3D 4da8a10c19c6642175a13aacf5fbf996 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-disc2.iso) =3D 895fca6034ecec7afb99878dbc93ded9 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-disc3.iso) =3D 49e440ad63251033bc154b35a48b379e MD5 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-dvd1.iso) =3D 52350dd2bd330fa58271819cb82c5e79 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-livefs.iso) =3D 93018d3777f360780272188a4473dda5 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-pc98-bootonly.iso) =3D 3c1340312e19f5a14c46fbce001fbafa MD5 (8.0-BETA4-pc98-disc1.iso) =3D 495674329c64d6d60b0d41f0922ac20a MD5 (8.0-BETA4-pc98-livefs.iso) =3D ede97f44cbf9c0205ca0b50b0b7900b9 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-bootonly.iso) =3D 71deda0e81c1bfa1c232e85aec7b5852 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-disc1.iso) =3D cb437fe6c588035492d30a4c9a4ec7f9 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-disc2.iso) =3D 2c59a9fcf633c64fe9462967bbd14a93 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-disc3.iso) =3D fb2d9d5a59518d30c28c8454bdf66ed4 MD5 (8.0-BETA4-sparc64-bootonly.iso) =3D e2cc9393e0b596acdb36a8b07fbc480e MD5 (8.0-BETA4-sparc64-disc1.iso) =3D 706f2e57ff1502ccaac37dd4571d898a MD5 (8.0-BETA4-sparc64-dvd1.iso) =3D 9ac3509c8731874ae20009f170daf0e7 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-bootonly.iso) =3D 3b4a1b964f64e68609f8010e43145c7a7= 57c352e62b2b8128dff3947f08c330b SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-disc1.iso) =3D e42cb6a4d46fcc924615949fe9da4217f9c8= 24e4c30fb6371787e28d5ec50ff8 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-dvd1.iso) =3D 61bb39599c2b2b76de0643d677702683c4274= 901dbaaa3944b3a419402046dcf SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-livefs.iso) =3D f6b9fc2bfe74bb7bc730fa6786af09e4cca= 8d92a812ee1968283dff3eb6adc48 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-amd64-memstick.img) =3D a930e419bed019114ddcf5833b3af1950= f4ef32444bb02b1b84e84d91c754bda SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-i386-bootonly.iso) =3D c2adde76995cbc25ac16afb2c4cb46686d= f54435f64e98ae4701908f024a0102 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-i386-disc1.iso) =3D 0bbee2a9ffd4c00070cae001652037c8b1945= 02dfc1a35c3ac0da1172c26bfdd SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-i386-dvd1.iso) =3D 4dcd81040e977ff2f6c30aae04497416c2aec9= eb8d4a5ac0dab6f2cd965bfaee SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-i386-livefs.iso) =3D fac4c8c08698c30801f4555d5127c8bb5d78= 6d6bebe164fd27e66bea737526bf SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-i386-memstick.img) =3D 4a39d259b18f8d900a7bfc1878ed6ac4fd= a82812e13999da0265976eb1ba15e8 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-bootonly.iso) =3D 5688b9c8bf13337835b2dce2fa7d6fb0ea= 17d397e927ef770d097a6728c8db23 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-disc1.iso) =3D 33ddac157f6529bb31388d8c4ffdfb4824c98= 9c0c0d843ecec071eb67ea36786 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-disc2.iso) =3D ae71fd5d8d29666fa15689ddd8ffd45e3b6d3= 54af9e1cb96b5a62280b452cbe5 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-disc3.iso) =3D 330b43e5f81887de948257db46ed407a5c5a9= 4c09e6d41155159e0617c0be53e SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-dvd1.iso) =3D 4324c3c08d625b92942424a1c6e14085593ee6= 2237ddd4f2eac2f35d7fb0f27b SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-ia64-livefs.iso) =3D 860cad096ef74efa534bae3642dff5ec545e= d47faa21a6cd65b197b12827885d SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-pc98-bootonly.iso) =3D 0ce882dd48863f2f4180cbdf5f17ff595d= 7942bf7ac84029adef27a65b1b5481 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-pc98-disc1.iso) =3D 4815a84ef0e834d3d57f7420c1f25ff93d0e3= b698cc6eecee8b587f9896edd01 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-pc98-livefs.iso) =3D cb6ea4a931551c2220c739d66f05c120926a= 7c2650373fc72770a25ea5e10a3d SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-bootonly.iso) =3D 6f97a8c061065661996e6efdad45bbb= aaafc2e8f80717fa845b2bc3ae14d7212 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-disc1.iso) =3D 9b1fb4af1a9a53e5723fdfd897d8a57a4e= 815ada22637285b7360d24f512290c SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-disc2.iso) =3D 8e82ccaca6673cb3177870748ffdcb891f= b16904eacd98822cca31f9888656ae SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-powerpc-disc3.iso) =3D 651561d9021d5c68f266f21d6df31c87fe= c1368a428492274177810ea1333c3c SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-sparc64-bootonly.iso) =3D 35dd8a303df41cb7ca744c37aee104e= 18f441967a14a3c9eb36bc4bcaf78c01b SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-sparc64-disc1.iso) =3D 1d5ab4e67225a8640c9200424a140fff00= 3203ab5edb855172d7030130974529 SHA256 (8.0-BETA4-sparc64-dvd1.iso) =3D 59ab2cca0fa637e9ef5007117f1005570c1= 02cf4665009c6021992dd1b8bd77b --=20 Ken Smith -
