Hi folks, pb11r409 is up; we now finally have a "generic-pc" image that works like the net45xx image but can be used on any standard PC that is supported by FreeBSD (may also include some other embedded products). The image can be flashed to a CF card or written to an IDE hard disk (with physdiskwrite 0.3). This makes Michael Iedema's work obsolete - he agreed to this, though, and tested the image (r404, actually), and said it worked the way it should. Of course, the webGUI firmware upgrade facility can be used, too. Other changes between r401 and r409: - fixed bootloader for net45xx to work with some CF cards that would otherwise produce read errors on boot (suggested/contributed by Dirk-Willem van Gulik) - those with a known-broken card please check and report if the fix didn't solve this - watchdog support added for net45xx platform (watchdogd userland program by Dirk-Willem van Gulik). This means that the system will be reset if it has been hung for 32 seconds (as experienced by a userland program) - JavaScript bug fixed on the traffic shaper: edit page I haven't had much time to test this release thoroughly, but as the changes were relatively small, I expect it to work properly. Now it's your turn to test. :) Greets, Manuel |
