@b3rt
Yes there were differences between CE / plus users in respect of squid package.
CE users package stayed at 0.4.somewhat version while up-to-date-package was 0.5.3 -
@b3rt
pfsense 2.7.2 users stayed at "Config Rev 23.3"
pfSense Versions
while pfSense Plus users changed to "Config Rev 23.6" on 2024-11-25 and higher since then.
pfSense 2.8.0 now uses "Config Rev 24.0" equally to pfSense Plus -

are you sure this impacts the list of available packages? given these packages are by default not part of any pfsense version? -

CE 2.8.0-RELEASE:the version 2.8.0.1500029 - is this correct?
Yes, that's correct. The appended kernel version is the result of build system changes. The display code is fixed in 2.8.0 but 2.7.2 will still show that until you upgrade.

Is there going to be offline installation image ? I dont see it here:
https://atxfiles.netgate.com/mirror/downloads/
-
Not currently. New installs of 2.8.0 are via the Net Installer only.
-
I just performed dirty update and it all worked without any issues. Good work guys and keep it up.
-
@stephenw10 Did you guys atleast managed to include the other kernel drivers in the default kernels like iscsi or rs232? Or we need to compile it ourselves again?
-
For any specific driver? It's pretty much the same included drivers as 2.7.2.

@stephenw10
I performed today a fresh install on new SSD from 2.7.2 to 2.8.0 with restore configuration from media during install. All went smooth. Perfect !!! -
Hi,
I have a question about the new PPOE
what are recommended settings
I run pfsense on proxmox hypervisor with virtio on this hardware https://protectli.com/vault-6-port/Hardware Checksum Offloading yes or no ?
Hardware TCP Segmentation Offloading yes or no ?
Hardware Large Receive Offloading yes or no ?Thanks in advance
Kr,

I would leave them disabled. I doubt you would see any gain using vtnet with if_pppoe on any of them.

Hello Experts,
I have a message like below, is it normal and safe to upgrade?
-
Yes, that's expected. The appended kernel version is a result of build changes. It won't be shown going forward but 2.7.2 still sees it.
-
@stephenw10 thanks for the info, so it's safe to upgrade, right?
-
@sokeada Yes, of course it is. It is always like that before the upgrade.
-
@netblues @stephenw10 I've try to upgrade my pfSense via GU, the update process seems going smooth but at the final step while system rebooting for the upgrade, it stucked like attached, please help to analyze the problem. This micro pc is using Intel NIC.

@sokeada aah.. its the wifi card
See this for a solution.https://forum.netgate.com/topic/197485/kernel-panic-when-upgrading-to-2-8-0-beta/4

@netblues @stephenw10 thanks for the use full info but I kinda not so clear yet about disable wifi in boot loader, I can disable the wifi card in pfSense 2.7.2 before I upgrade to 2.8.0 or I can only disable wifi card after upgrade to 2.8.0 in the kernel panic screen? some said disable wifi card in bios might not help, the best option should be disable in config file or take out the hardware wifi card from the machine... please help to choose the best method and long term fix for the next issue. Actually, I don't need wifi, I use only LAN.
Thanks,
Sokeada
