FreeBSD 5.3-BETA2 available

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the stuff-to-play-with dept.

Nirbo writes "One week after FreeBSD 5.3-BETA1, FreeBSD 5.3-BETA2, is now available to those wishing to update to the most current FreeBSD on the 5.x branch. It's available from the Main FTP servers, and probably a few more places by this point. BETA-3 is due out September 3rd, but for those who don't want to go a single day without updating, you can find snapshots (and the ISO images) here."

    Just because there isn't a ________ community on slashdot, doesn't mean that community doesn't exist.

    I guess by your logic we can conclude windows is dying as well. There's never a positivly moderated post about Microsoft, therefore windows must be dying.

    The beta is broken, plain and simple. No networking ability means it's not ready for prime time. Can you understand that?
