NetBSD 6.0.1 Released, Brings Bug-Fixes

Posted by Michael Larabel on December 27, 2012

For those of you currently on NetBSD 6.0 or are using NetBSD 5.x as your operating system but have been wanting a reason to upgrade, the first NetBSD 6.0.x point release has surfaced.

NetBSD 6.0.1 brings bug-fixes and security fixes atop the NetBSD 6.0 branch. NetBSD 6.0 was originally released in mid-October.

For those still being conservative and preferring NetBSD 5.x for the time being, NetBSD 5.2 arrived earlier this month with its own set of fixes.

If you're curious about the changes for NetBSD 6.0.1, see the release notes.
