Snapshot question

pfSense-Full-Update-1.2.1-TESTING-SNAPSHOT-20080706-2338.tgz

Doesnt appear to be completely there at 3.6 mb.

Is this how snapshots will appear as they are uploaded?

Thanks!

http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD7/RELENG_1_2/pfSense-Full-Update-1.2.1-TESTING-SNAPSHOT-20080706-0037.tgz

yes they are uploaded in real time after build cycles, be aware of this.

I think you could have a problem here - The auto update feature downloads what ever http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD7/RELENG_1_2/_updaters/latest.tgz currently is, so what if some one runs auto update while this file is its self being updated? there is no MD5 so how would the user know if the file is only half the size? just a though…

You mean this? http://snapshots.pfsense.org/FreeBSD7/RELENG_1_2/_updaters/latest.tgz.sha256

I meant this but the point of my post has obviously been miss understood.

You shouldn't be using latest.tgz for console upgrades, use the full update snapshots.

cmb is correct. latest.tgz is for auto upgrade system only.
