Additionally, the root user password is set to root. It is strongly recommended to change the password for both users after gaining access to the system. Installer images and memory stick images are available here: https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/ISO-IMAGES/12.2/ The image checksums follow at the end of this e-mail. If you notice problems you can report them through the Bugzilla PR system or on the -stable mailing list. If you would like to use SVN to do a source based update of an existing system, use the "releng/12.2" branch. Please note, the release notes page is not yet complete, and will be updated on an ongoing basis as the 12.2-RELEASE cycle progresses. === Virtual Machine Disk Images === VM disk images are available for the amd64, i386, and aarch64 architectures. Disk images may be downloaded from the following URL (or any of the FreeBSD download mirrors): https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/VM-IMAGES/12.2-BETA1/ The partition layout is: ~ 16 kB - freebsd-boot GPT partition type (bootfs GPT label) ~ 1 GB - freebsd-swap GPT partition type (swapfs GPT label) ~ 20 GB - freebsd-ufs GPT partition type (rootfs GPT label) The disk images are available in QCOW2, VHD, VMDK, and raw disk image formats. The image download size is approximately 135 MB and 165 MB respectively (amd64/i386), decompressing to a 21 GB sparse image. Note regarding arm64/aarch64 virtual machine images: a modified QEMU EFI loader file is needed for qemu-system-aarch64 to be able to boot the virtual machine images. See this page for more information: https://wiki.freebsd.org/arm64/QEMU To boot the VM image, run: % qemu-system-aarch64 -m 4096M -cpu cortex-a57 -M virt \ -bios QEMU_EFI.fd -serial telnet::,server -nographic \ -drive if=none,file=VMDISK,id=hd0 \ -device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \ -device virtio-net-device,netdev=net0 \ -netdev user,id=net0 Be sure to replace "VMDISK" with the path to the virtual machine image. === Amazon EC2 AMI Images === FreeBSD/amd64 EC2 AMIs are available in the following regions: af-south-1 region: ami-0682b0abc1b929a31 eu-north-1 region: ami-01ec0fad41ad5b11b ap-south-1 region: ami-0a354c3e33a97f03e eu-west-3 region: ami-00a7f8b7e489ce377 eu-west-2 region: ami-0918d3aed34e63f42 eu-south-1 region: ami-0ef47c66ed81fa775 eu-west-1 region: ami-0fb2f0e6d12285cd8 ap-northeast-2 region: ami-034b23660403d5a15 me-south-1 region: ami-01000ac49a604f65c ap-northeast-1 region: ami-0861284e9b47c08d9 sa-east-1 region: ami-05e87a93a2901e017 ca-central-1 region: ami-0101668190f85b08e ap-east-1 region: ami-0178fc46837dede16 ap-southeast-1 region: ami-054abbfa1a3b706dc ap-southeast-2 region: ami-06928af7c16a404fa eu-central-1 region: ami-025367fda774dc82d us-east-1 region: ami-0557a1c0ab52820fb us-east-2 region: ami-09e6a1b7fd6e2d317 us-west-1 region: ami-0aa48ace1556318cb us-west-2 region: ami-081a058b5db3d55a8 FreeBSD/aarch64 EC2 AMIs are available in the following regions: af-south-1 region: ami-0108ec28ec20cc0db eu-north-1 region: ami-02086e24d6ccb439c ap-south-1 region: ami-028c125932c0cfae0 eu-west-3 region: ami-00147236e2c9ddee3 eu-west-2 region: ami-04b19d19323868611 eu-south-1 region: ami-06e0d4d46d8409c71 eu-west-1 region: ami-0c1342c72a99b05f5 ap-northeast-2 region: ami-0421176e731380248 me-south-1 region: ami-017022e2d25de6b35 ap-northeast-1 region: ami-0534632615bb2ada5 sa-east-1 region: ami-0f2447add4275ebd2 ca-central-1 region: ami-0f29457b52111cdb9 ap-east-1 region: ami-00cac78d564d247ea ap-southeast-1 region: ami-0caa2ad47deff685d ap-southeast-2 region: ami-0dd92be0338c93ce3 eu-central-1 region: ami-01fe3a17e59891f43 us-east-1 region: ami-0092ad8d18e824e4e us-east-2 region: ami-00ea8eedc4f851449 us-west-1 region: ami-031d322be3a2c5804 us-west-2 region: ami-0daefded030558a28 === Vagrant Images === FreeBSD/amd64 images are available on the Hashicorp Atlas site, and can be installed by running: % vagrant init freebsd/FreeBSD-12.2-BETA1 % vagrant up === Upgrading === The
12.2-BETA1 iwm init failed on Intel 9560 (ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen7)
I tested FreeBSD 12.2-BETA1 and I have a ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen7 (which has an Intel 9560 wifi chipset), and I was looking forward to working wifi in the next FreeBSD release. I see that some work was done to add support for my wifi chipset, and I appreciate the efforts! I just thought that this information would be helpful to developers to ensure that wifi properly functions for more people in time for the full 12.2-RELEASE. Basically, iwm does indeed detect my “Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless AC 9560” unlike in 12.1-RELEASE, but it seems to fail on firmware or ucode loading with these lines: iwm0: mem 0xea238000-0xea23bfff at device 20.3 on pci0 iwm0: fw chunk addr 0x404000 len 712 failed to load iwm0: iwm_pcie_load_section: Could not load the [0] uCode section iwm0: iwm_start_fw: failed 60 iwm0: Failed to start INIT ucode: 60 I believe that wifi did in fact work in the September 10th prerelease build (I may be wrong), but the system was still pretty unusable for different or possibly related reasons so maybe that could be of help. I’ve attached a full dmesg to https://dmesgd.nycbug.org/index.cgi?do=view&id=5669. Thanks, Sreehari ---<>--- Copyright (c) 1992-2020 The FreeBSD Project.
