FreeBSD 10.0 Alpha 2, an operating system for x86, ARM, IA-64, PowerPC, PC-98 and UltraSPARC architectures, has been released and it's now available for testing.

This is the second release for the new branch of FreeBSD in less than two weeks, but this doesn't mean that it's not full of changes and improvements.

According to the developers, an issue that caused Integrated RAID volumes on LSI mps(4) controllers to not get scanned on boot has been fixed, a panic that occurred during pageout, observed on some powerpc64 systems, has been fixed, and much more.

The official changelog comes with a complete list of fixes and modifications. Download FreeBSD 10.0 Alpha 2 right now from Softpedia.

Remember that this is a development release and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended to be used for testing purposes only.
