Subject: FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE is now available.
Yes, it's that time again! I'm very happy to announce the availability
of FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE, the latest in our line of releases from the
3.x-STABLE branch. The follow-on to FreeBSD 3.2 (released in May, 1999),
a lot of new drivers have been added, many bugs were fixed and several
important security issues where dealt with. Please see the release notes
for more information.
FreeBSD 3.3-RELEASE is available at ftp.freebsd.org and various FTP
mirror sites throughout the world. It can also be ordered on CD from
The FreeBSD Mall, from where it will be shipping soon on a 4 CD set
containing installation bits for x86 architecture, as well a lot of
other material of general interest to programmers and end-users alike
(3.3-RELEASE for the Alpha architecture is available from the FTP site).
NOTE: All of the profits from the sales of this CD set go to support
the FreeBSD Project! We are also trying something new with 3.3-RELEASE
in making disc #1 from Walnut Creek CDROM's official distribution
available via anonymous FTP. This is the most important CD of their
4 set, one which will allow users to install the base system and all
of its most important add-ons from a single ISO 9660 image. We are doing
this because the ISO image is rapidly becoming the preferred format for
distributing operating system releases and we're certainly not going to
go out of our way to make FreeBSD harder to "test drive" if providing
the standard NFS/FTP network installation methods is no longer enough.
We can't promise that all the mirror sites will carry the rather large
installation (660MB) image, but it will at least be available from:
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/ISO-IMAGES/3.3-install.cd0
along with the more traditional 3.3-RELEASE bits. If you can't
afford the CDs, are impatient, or just want to use it for evangelism
purposes, then by all means download the ISO, otherwise please do
continue to support the FreeBSD project by purchasing one of its
official CD releases from Walnut Creek CDROM.
The official FTP distribution site for FreeBSD is:
ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD
Or via the WEB pages at:
http://www.freebsdmall.com and
http://www.cdrom.com
