<center><h1>History and List of Bugfixes</h1></center>
|
|
|
|
<p>This is the short release history of PicoBSD, as well as the list of bugs
|
|
which were found. Some of them were already corrected, so that you should read
|
|
the list before reporting a new one.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>We tried to make this software bug-free, but life is life... Sorry for the
|
|
inconvenience.</p>

<h3>PicoBSD 0.4</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
1998.08.28: Serious bug was discovered in MFS code (thanks to Eric
|
|
P. Scott for detailed bug report!). Though the bug itself is in
|
|
FreeBSD-current kernel code and not in the PicoBSD-specific sources,
|
|
it makes PicoBSD very fragile and easy to crash.
|
|
<p>Some people are already working on it, so expect the fixed version
|
|
in a few days. Its availability will be noted here, on this page,
|
|
so keep an eye on it.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
1998.08.27: PicoBSD source tree is now a part of official FreeBSD
|
|
source tree (you can find it in src/release/picobsd). From now on,
|
|
all the fixes and changes will go directly to this tree, and from
|
|
time to time I'll be preparing a stand-alone snapshot of the sources.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
1998.08.19: PicoBSD 0.4 released.
|
|
<p>New features include: NATd,
|
|
netstat, DEVFS/SLICE instead of standard /dev, additional network
|
|
drivers, and several minor fixes. Distribution contains also
|
|
a collection of small versions of system programs (TinyWare), among
|
|
them custom init(8).</p>
|
|
<p>I added also the fourth type of setup - 'router' - which is a
|
|
specialized version of PicoBSD that focuses on providing as small
|
|
as possible router solution.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>PicoBSD 0.31</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
1998.03.28: Some people reported that the binary files (*.flp) were
|
|
being corrupted during download because their browsers assumed that
|
|
these are text files. I changed the names to *.bin - their contents
|
|
is the same.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
1998.03.20: PicoBSD 0.31 released. New features include: SNMP daemon,
|
|
better creation of /kernel.config, some other minor fixes. Massive
|
|
changes in the building scripts. I also removed vn(4) driver from
|
|
"net" and "isp" floppies.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3>PicoBSD 0.3</h3>
|
|
<p>The following bugs were found in this release of PicoBSD:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> 1998.02.27: A bug in kget(8) utility caused it to dump core in certain
|
|
situations. As a consequence, it wasn't possible to save the changes
|
|
made in UserConfig (-c). This will be corrected in the next release (or
|
|
bugfix issue).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li> 1998.02.24: Wrongly sized MFS caused the passwd(1) on "net" type
|
|
floppy to fail because of lack of space for temporary files. This bug
|
|
affected only "net" floppies, and of course the scripts ("2000" looks
|
|
quite similar to "2200" :-(( ). Also, the 'update' script didn't work
|
|
as expected...
|
|
<p> This was fixed the same day, and the corrected files are: pb03en1.zip,
|
|
pb03pn1.zip, and pbsd-s031.tgz respectively. They are now under standard
|
|
links on the main page of PicoBSD project, so if you downloaded after
|
|
this date, you shouldn't worry.</p>
|
|
<p> Please check that you have the fixed versions - the archive name should
|
|
contain the tiny number, such as "pb03en<b>1</b>.zip", or
|
|
pbsd-s03<b>1</b>.tgz".</p>
|
|
<li>
|
|
1998.02.15: PicoBSD 0.3 released. This is the first version that I can
|
|
truly recommend - previous one was too buggy... :-)
