- <p>The FreeBSD Security Team intends to support 6.4-RELEASE until
- November 30th, 2010.</p>
-
- <h2>Availability</h2>
-
- <p>FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE is now available for the amd64, i386, pc98, and sparc64
- architectures. The builds for the alpha architecture have not completed
- yet and will be announced later. FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE can be installed
- from bootable ISO images or over the network; the required files can be
- downloaded via FTP or BitTorrent as described in the sections below.
- While some of the smaller FTP mirrors may not carry all architectures,
- they will all generally contain the more common ones, such as i386 and
- amd64.</p>
-
- <p>MD5 and SHA256 hashes for the release ISO images are included at the
- bottom of this message.</p>
-
- <p>The contents of the ISO images provided as part of the release has changed
- for most of the architectures. Using the i386 architecture as an example,
- there are ISO images named "bootonly", "disc1", "disc2", "disc3", "docs",
- and "dvd1". The "bootonly" image is suitable for booting a machine to do
- a network based installation using FTP or NFS. The "disc1", "disc2", and
- "disc3" images are CDROM-sized (700MB media) and are used to do a full
- installation that includes a basic set of packages and does not require
- network access to an FTP or NFS server during the installation. In addition,
- "disc1" supports booting into a "live CD-based filesystem" and system rescue
- mode. The "docs" image has all of the documentation for all supported
- languages. The "dvd1" image is DVD-sized and includes everything that is
- on the CDROM discs. So "dvd1" can be used to do a full installation that
- includes a basic set of packages, it has all of the documentation for all
- supported languages, and it can be used for booting into a "live CD-based
- filesystem" and system rescue mode. Most people will find that "disc1",
- "disc2" and "disc3" are all that are needed if their machine does not have
- a DVD-capable drive. For people with machines that do have a DVD-capable
- drive "dvd1" should be all that is required. If you intend to install ports
- from source instead of using the pre-built packages included with the release
- only "disc1" is needed.</p>
-
- <p>FreeBSD 6.4-RELEASE can also be purchased on CD-ROM from several
- vendors. One of the vendors that will be offering FreeBSD 6.4-based
- products is:</p>

- <ul>
- <li><p>FreeBSD Mall, Inc.

- </ul>
-
-
- <h2>BitTorrent</h2>
-
- <p>6.4-RELEASE ISOs are available via BitTorrent. A collection of torrent
- files to download the images is available at:</p>

- <p>However before trying these sites you may want to check your regional
- mirror(s) first by going to:</p>
-
- <p><tt>ftp://ftp.&lt;yourdomain&gt;.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD</tt></p>
-
- <p>Any additional mirror sites will be labeled <tt>ftp2</tt>,
- <tt>ftp3</tt> and so on.</p>
-
- <p>More information about FreeBSD mirror sites can be found at:</p>

-
- <p>For instructions on installing FreeBSD, please see Chapter 2 of The
- FreeBSD Handbook. It provides a complete installation walk-through
- for users new to FreeBSD, and can be found online at:</p>

-
- <h2>FreeBSD Update</h2>
-
- <p>The freebsd-update(8) utility supports binary upgrades of i386 and amd64
- systems running earlier FreeBSD releases. Systems running 6.3-RELEASE,
- 6.4-BETA, 6.4-RC1, or 6.4-RC2 can upgrade as follows:</p>
-
- <p><tt># freebsd-update upgrade -r 6.4-RELEASE</tt></p>
-
- <p>During this process, FreeBSD Update may ask the user to help by merging
- some configuration files or by confirming that the automatically performed
- merging was done correctly.</p>
-
- <p><tt># freebsd-update install</tt></p>
-
- <p>The system must be rebooted with the newly installed kernel before continuing.</p>
-
- <p><tt># shutdown -r now</tt></p>
-
- <p>After rebooting, freebsd-update needs to be run again to install the new
- userland components, and the system needs to be rebooted again:</p>
-
- <p><tt># freebsd-update install</tt></p>
- <p><tt># shutdown -r now</tt></p>
-
- <p>Note that FreeBSD Update stores downloaded upgrades in /var/db/freebsd-update,
- so at least 400MB should be free in /var before running freebsd-update; if
- the /var partition is too small, the -d option to freebsd-update can be used
- to indicate that the upgrades should be stored in a different directory.</p>
-
