All,

if you followed the development of FreeSBIE 2.0 a bit, you should
remember that, back in Semptember, I said that FreeSBIE 2.0 would have
been the last of a series of four ISO images. Three images were
already published: FreeSBIE GMV back in August, FreeSBIE LVC in
October, FreeSBIE 2.0-BETA in November.  Well, circustamces make
me release a fourth ISO image which is *not* FreeSBIE 2.0, but
FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 (Release Candidate 1). This is due to the number of
bugs which had been fixed after 2.0-BETA was release. 
If no major bugs are found, FreeSBIE 2.0 is going to be released not
too long after FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE has been released. Hopefully you
will be able to put a FreeSBIE 2.0 CD-ROM under your Christmas tree.
:)

FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 is based on the RELENG_6_2 branch of the FreeBSD
source tree and on the RELEASE_6_2_0 branch of the ports tree.

Testing the ISO image, finding bugs and reporting them back to me or
to the freesbie@gufi.org mailing list are the foci for those who want
to give this ISO image a try, and I hope many of you will. There is
still a lot of free space on the ISO image, so feel free to suggest
additional software to include.

FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1 can be downloaded from our mirrors:

ftp://ftp.fr.freesbie.org/freesbie/2.0-RC1/

MD5 checksum for the ISO image is:
MD5 (FreeSBIE-2.0-RC1-20061123.iso) = 9dfced489f6fd083f10b14e23c25079

Thank you in advance for testing FreeSBIE 2.0-RC1

Best Regards
