FreeBSD 9.1-RC1


Ken Smith has announced the availability of the first release candidate for FreeBSD 9.1: "The first release candidate of the 9.1-RELEASE release cycle is now available on the FTP servers for amd64, i386 and powerpc64. Current plans are for there to be one more RC build, followed by the release itself. If you notice any problems you can report them through the normal Gnats PR system or on the 'stable' mailing list. With both the doc and ports repositories now moved to SVN it has been decided to not export the 9.1 release branch activity to CVS. So csup/cvsup update mechanisms are not available for updating to 9.1-RC1. If you would like to use SVN the branch to use is releng/9.1. The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64 systems running earlier FreeBSD releases." Here is the brief release announcement. Download: FreeBSD-9.1-RC1-i386-disc1.iso (524MB, SHA256), FreeBSD-9.1-RC1-amd64-disc1.iso (637MB, SHA256).
