Current version:
1.33
Latest beta snapshot:
1.8.0b492
Beta versions
Development is currently being done on a FreeBSD 8.2 based version of m0n0wall that brings better support for current hardware (especially new WLAN and Ethernet controllers), as well as massive improvements to the IPv6 support.
- Snapshots
Snapshots are built whenever there is a commit to the repository. The version number format is 1.8.0bXXX, where XXX = revision of the repository that the image was built from. - Change log (see also commit log below)
- Discussion forum
Remember that snapshots/betas may contain serious bugs and are not intended for use in sensitive production environments. 128 MB RAM or more are required (systems with 64 MB will not work reliably with the new version anymore).
Other important points:- the "embedded" image is gone; generic-pc-serial should now be used for PC Engines and Soekris boards
- console speed for serial images is fixed to 9600 baud (no longer tries to use BIOS preset value)
- images cannot be uploaded directly to current 1.33 installations because the MFS that they allocate
for firmware uploads is too small (only 10 MB). You can work around this by running the following commands
via /exec.php after you've clicked the "Enable firmware upload" button:
umount /ftmp /sbin/mdmfs -s 16m md1 /ftmp
If you are upgrading an embedded installation, rename the generic-pc-serial image to 'embedded' before uploading it. - WLAN configuration has moved to the Interfaces: Assign page to allow for multiple SSIDs per card on cards that support it. First add a new WLAN using the "WLANs" tab, then assign it to an (optional) interface using the "Interface assignments" tab.
- Snapshot images are not digitally signed at this time
The last 5 commits to the beta branch:
| Rev. | Author | Date | Message |
| r492 | mkasper | 01/30/2012 13:10:33 | - add scheduler ("Croen") service, contributed by Lennart Grahl current possible actions: reboot, reconnect WAN interface |
| r491 | mkasper | 01/26/2012 12:44:29 | - automatically reassign available physical network interfaces if none of the assigned interfaces in the configuration can be found on the system (i.e. for a new installation, or when moving an existing config to new hardware) - fix forced reboot after changing polling setting |
| r490 | mkasper | 01/25/2012 14:36:36 | - use UFS1 instead of UFS2 for image (UFS2 does not give an advantage here and may give problems when upgrading directly from old versions) |
| r489 | mkasper | 01/24/2012 17:04:30 | - fix MPD error when PPTP VPN is enabled and IPv6 DNS servers are configured *again* |
| r488 | mkasper | 01/24/2012 10:39:17 | - fix MPD error when PPTP VPN is enabled and IPv6 DNS servers are configured |
