FreeBSD 10.0-RC1 now available

The first RC build of the 10.0-RELEASE release cycle is now available
on the FTP servers for the amd64, i386, ia64, powerpc, powerpc64 and
sparc64 architectures.

 * Please see the change list for an important note regarding the
   bsdinstall(8) ZFS on GELI option.

The image checksums follow at the end of this email.

ISO images and, for architectures that support it, the memory stick images
are available here:

  ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/ISO-IMAGES/10.0/

(or any of the FreeBSD mirror sites).

If you notice problems you can report them through the normal GNATS PR
system or here on the -current mailing list.

If you would like to use SVN to do a source based update of an existing
system, use the "releng/10.0" branch.

Important note to freebsd-update(8) users:  Please be sure to follow the
instructions in the following FreeBSD Errata Notices before upgrading
the system to 10.0-RC1:

  - EN-13:04.freebsd-update:
  http://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-13:04.freebsd-update.asc

  - EN-13:05.freebsd-update:
  http://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-EN-13:05.freebsd-update.asc


Pre-installed virtual machine images for 10.0-RC1 are also available
for amd64 and i386 architectures.

The images are located under the 'snapshots' directory on FTP, here:

    ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/VM-IMAGES/10.0-RC1/

The disk images are available in both QCOW2, VHD, and VMDK format.  The
image download size is approximately 135 MB, which decompress to a 20GB
sparse image.

The partition layout is:

    - 512k - freebsd-boot GPT partition type (bootfs GPT label)
    - 1GB  - freebsd-swap GPT partition type (swapfs GPT label)
    - ~17GB - freebsd-ufs GPT partition type (rootfs GPT label)

Changes between -BETA4 and -RC1 include:

    - Fix to a regression in bsdinstall(8) that prevents ZFS on GELI
      installation from working correctly.[*]
      
	*Please note: a last-minute problem was found in 10.0-RC1
	testing with this installation option that is still being
	investigated.  Please do *not* select the GELI encryption
	option from the installer.  Although the installation
	successfully completes, the GELI passphrase will *not*
	decrypt the GELI provider.

    - Build Hyper-V kernel modules by default for i386.

    - Update oce(4) driver to support 40Gbps devices.

    - Improve robustness of the Xen balloon driver.

    - Fix accounting for hw.realmem on the i386 and amd64 platforms.

    - Fix poweroff(8) on XenServer.

    - Fix powerd/states on AMD cpus.

    - Add support for BCM57764, BCM57767, BCM57782, BCM57786 and
      BCM57787.

    - Fix PKG_ABI detection in bsdconfig(8) after pkg-1.2.

    - Fix emulated jail_v0 byte order.

    - Fix hang on reboot with active iSCSI connections.

    - Fix a potential system crash if a jail(8) is created and destroyed
      on systems with VIMAGE.
