Re: kfreebsd repositories vanished after Jessie official release
Great Steven
The new httpredir works perfectly and I can update my kFreeBSD systems.
To be honest, I also tried in a VM a daily sid CD image which I took here
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/sid_d-i/arch-latest/kfreebsd-amd64/list-cd/
I have to say that the kernel (kfreebsd-10.1-0-amd64.gz) that has been
installed does not work for updating by apt-get
I had to manually copy another kfreebsd-10.1-0-amd64.gz + modules from
a working and updated system to be able to apt-get from a fresh
installed system.
apt-get didn't work after install, but wget did (I downloaded the
required debs by wget from a local network http server)
I suspect that the kernel in the installer has to be updated.
By the way, is there any "to-do-list" for kFreeBSD so that external
developers could help in the project?
Best regards
