Title: 4.1 Official Release Or The Current Snapshots?
Post by: ZDevil on May 03, 2007, 01:18:20 pm
Just wonder if there is any important difference between the official release 4.1 (just out on 1 May) and the snapshots. I notice that http://www.openbsd.org/zaurus.html (http://www.openbsd.org/zaurus.html) has already updated the official documentation to 4.1 saying it is the latest supported release.
I install the snapshot dated 28 April. Thanks!

What kernel does uname -a indicate you are running?

Your fine. Wait a month or two and then update.

Thanks. Just checked ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/zaurus (http://ftp://ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/4.1/zaurus) . The files there are even older ( 2007/3/10 ), though it seems the official obsd zaurus page said that the supported release was 4.0 before a few days ago.

This has been a weird release.  OpenBSD 4.1 was available for those running -current over a month ago.
