BSD Release: NetBSD 5.0.1 |
 |
Soren Jacobsen has announced the release of NetBSD 5.0.1: "The NetBSD Project is pleased to announce that version 5.0.1 of the NetBSD operating system is now available. NetBSD 5.0.1 is the first security/critical update of the NetBSD 5.0 release branch. It represents a selected subset of fixes deemed critical in nature for security or stability reasons. Please note that all fixes in security/critical updates (i.e., NetBSD 5.0.1, 5.0.2, etc.) are cumulative, so the latest update contains all such fixes since the corresponding minor release. These fixes will also appear in future minor releases (i.e., NetBSD 5.1, 5.2, etc.), together with other less-critical fixes and feature enhancements." See the detailed release notes for a complete list of all changes, security fixes and known issues. Installation CD images for 42 processor architectures are available for download from the project's FTP mirrors; quick links to the i386 and amd64 CD images (SHA512): i386cd-5.0.1.iso (229MB, torrent), amd64cd-5.0.1.iso (242MB, torrent). |
