Solved FreeBSD 14 - STABLE not found.

[GlitchyDot]

As topic states.
SABLE is not found. Only 13.3-STABLE and 15.0-CURRENT .

• 14.1 is present but not yet populated.

From the announcement for 20240628 9a53391b601d, a few hours ago:

VM disk images are available for the following architectures:

o 14.1-STABLE amd64
o 14.1-STABLE i386
o 14.1-STABLE riscv64

There's also the customary plea for patience – for ISO-IMAGES, probably intended as a more general plea.

The second screenshot – absence of 14.1-STABLE, presence of inferior 14.0-STABLE – does seem like a bug (probably an omission). Reported.

I generally just install a -RELEASE and use the source to update it to stable/14.

It was empty(ISO and VM) not populated - correct. Going to check it now

You can see the instructions about upgrading with command below.

/usr/bin/less -p 'To rebuild everything and install it on the current system.' /usr/src/UPDATING

Maybe check a nearby mirror, although I doubt that you'll find it any different from download.freebsd.org for what's reported.

look into a mirror and say Freebsd 4 times
and then Beastie will appear

Alternatively – not yet in the FreeBSD Handbook – the one-off switch to pkgbase involves a little reading, from the wiki.

Subsequent updates (to CURRENT, STABLE, or RELEASE) can be as simple as:

pkg upgrade --repository FreeBSD-base

http://ftp-archive.freebsd.org/mirror/FreeBSD/snapshots/ISO-IMAGES/14.1/
Only trough this link i found 14.1-STABLE , but if i use this : https://download.freebsd.org/snapshots/amd64/amd64/ISO-IMAGES/14.1/ - empty ( VM-IMAGES also empty ), and trough mirrors from this: https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/mirrors/#mirrors - checked some EU mirrors as im in EU - all empty.

Reported.

The issue was upload-related. GlitchyDot thanks for noting the absences!

Next week's snapshots should be free from the issue. Announcements in the usual place, freebsd-snapshots.
