Hubbard" <jkh@time.cdrom.com> Subject: New 2.1.0-950726-SNAP available - come 'n get it! Approved: peter@taronga.com,jkh@time.cdrom.com Sender: peter@bonkers.taronga.com (Peter da Silva) Organization: FreeBSD Message-ID: <DCEoq0.E0J@bonkers.taronga.com> Date: Thu, 27 Jul 1995 23:31:31 GMT Lines: 19 Now available on freefall and ftp.freebsd.org: 2.1.0-950726-SNAP This supercedes the previous snap, 2.0.5-950622-SNAP. Hopefully the next snap or two will also see the introduction of a new upgrade-in-place procedure, assuming that I can finish writing it in time. I'll also offer a "retrofit kit" for 2.0.5 which will supply the appropriate files for allowing the upgrade procedure in 2.1 to operate with it. This mainly involves keeping extra information around about which files come with the release or SNAP so that the upgrade knows what to preserve and what can be simply replaced. This feature is NOT in this snapshot, I'm just giving you a preview of what's coming.. Please let me know how this snap works for you, either good or bad! Thanks! Jordan
