Announcement
------------

The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is pleased to announce the
availability of FreeBSD 6.1-BETA2 and FreeBSD 5.5-BETA2.  Both FreeBSD
6.1 and FreeBSD 5.5 are meant to be a refinement of their  respective
branches with few dramatic changes.  A lot of bugfixes have been made,
some drivers have been updated, and some areas have been tweaked for
better performance, etc. but no large changes have been made to the
basic architecture.  The FreeBSD 5.5 Release is being done for people
who are unable to make the jump to FreeBSD 6.X at this time.  We do
encourage people to make that transition as soon as possible, though.
There have been some updates made between FreeBSD 5.4 and FreeBSD 5.5
but not all of the bugfixes done to RELENG_6 have been backported to
RELENG_5.  This will almost certainly be the last 5.X release.

We encourage people to help with testing so any final bugs can be
identified and worked out.  Availability of ISO images is given below.
If you have an older system you want to update using the normal
CVS/cvsup source based upgrade the branch tag to use is RELENG_6 for 6.1
and RELENG_5 for 5.5, though that will change later in the release cycle
when we start doing the Release Candidates.  Problem reports can be
submitted using the send-pr(1) command.

The list of open issues and things still being worked on are on the
todo list:

Known Issues
------------

The DHCP problem that affected the 6.1-BETA1 installer has been fixed.
Several critical fixes were made to the ATA subsystem after the BETA2
builds started, so please check for newer updates before reporting
problems.  The Intel 2200/2915 Wireless is known to have a number of
stability problems that are being worked on right now.  Work is also in
progress to make ht-plug of USB memory devices more reliable.  Updated
packages for all architectures might not be available yet.

Availability
------------

The BETA2 ISOs and FTP support are available on most of the FreeBSD
Mirror sites.  A list of the mirror sites is available here:
