FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 1 Highlights features

FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 1, an operating system that can run on architectures such as x86, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, PC-98, and UltraSPARC, has been published and can be downloaded for testing.

FreeBSD's developers are moving at incredible speed and are constantly releasing new versions of one after another. The new beta was completed with five beta versions, but there was no problem.

"Because there was a problem in 10.0-beta1 freebsd-update (8) at the last minute, Freebsd-update (8) did not support 10.0-beta1 upgrades," the official Bulletin said. So please do not use Freebsd-update (8) to upgrade 10.0-beta1. Please note that CVSup and CVS do not support upgrades for the Src/tree method. ”

And, according to the developer, the PORTS.TXZ distribution is not included in the 10.0 Beta 1 release, but it is expected to be included in subsequent versions of Disc1.iso during the release cycle.

Highlights of FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 1:

Freebsd-version, a tool for auditing, has been completed. If you want to determine the client patch level, this is a very important tool and it is different from the ' uname-r ' report;

The decompression performance of ZFS LZJB has been improved;

Two new MIPS cpu:mips24k and MIPS74K are supported;

The configuration of the "Jail__*" rc.conf (5) variable for each jail configuration is automatically converted to/var/run/jail. conf is invoked before jail (8), so a new jail.conf (5) syntax is used;

The vast majority of ATF tools and _ATF users have been removed;

The Publisher encourages users to test the release and report any identified problems. The official change catalogue has a complete list of revisions and modifications. Now you can download FreeBSD 10.0 Beta 1 immediately in Softpedia.

Please note that this is a developer version please do not install on any product side. It is only intended for testing purposes.
