Summary

  • Update the 7.3.0 release notes from the beta.2 draft to the rc.1 draft.
  • Reframe the changelog for users upgrading from 7.2.4.
  • Add the less-prominent CHANGES FROM BETA.2 section and individual base distro package entries.

Why

The existing page still reflected the beta.2 release-note structure. The rc.1 notes need to describe the full 7.3.0 surface area, including onboarding/internal boot, Docker and storage changes, hardware support, virtualization updates, API/kernel updates, and package refreshes.

Validation

  • git diff --check -- docs/unraid-os/release-notes/7.3.0.md
  • pnpm exec remark docs/unraid-os/release-notes/7.3.0.md --quiet --frail

Per repo guidance, I did not run the full docs build.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation
    • Updated 7.3.0 release notes to RC.1, reorganized changelog baseline to 7.2.4, and added "Prerelease tester notes".
  • New Features
    • Onboarding/internal-boot workflow improvements and automatic onboarding start for new installs.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Docker v29: MAC handling changes, migration of legacy MACs, live MAC display, and phantom container fixes.
    • Storage: ZFS ARC control, 4Kn/XFS compatibility, pool/device detection, mover/parity-swap fixes.
  • Platform & Security
    • Kernel, virtualization, firmware and package bumps plus CVE fixes.

- Purpose: publish the 7.3.0-rc.1 release-note draft from the current file changes.

- Before: the page still presented the 7.3.0-beta.2 changelog structure and package inventory.

- Why: users upgrading from 7.2.4 need the current 7.3.0 rc.1 feature and package summary.

- What: rewrites the release notes around the rc.1 scope, beta.2 deltas, Docker/storage/WebGUI updates, and package versions.

- How: updates docs/unraid-os/release-notes/7.3.0.md only, keeping validation focused on markdown checks.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This pull request converts the 7.3.0 release notes from beta.2 to rc.1, changes the changelog baseline to 7.2.4, and reorganizes sections covering Security, Onboarding/internal-boot, Docker v29 migration details, Storage, WebGUI/System, Virtualization/Networking, platform package versions, and prerelease tester notes.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Release notes (single file)
docs/unraid-os/release-notes/7.3.0.md
Switched release framing 7.3.0-beta.2 → 7.3.0-rc.1 and rebased “Changes vs” to 7.2.4; restructured and expanded sections: Security, Onboarding/internal-boot (new guidance, startup/migration notes, internal-boot workflow fixes), Docker v29 migration (fixed/optional MAC field, live MAC display, legacy --mac-address migration, case-sensitive template lookup fixes, phantom container fixes, VM template MAC prevention), Storage (zfs_arc_max control, 4Kn/XFS fixes, pool wake, device detection improvements, mover/parity-swap updates), WebGUI/System (UI/API parsing/styling/behavior fixes, CRLF handling, theme adjustments), Virtualization/Networking (kernel/config/firmware bumps, QEMU/libvirt/OVMF updates, virtiofs hang fix), platform package bumps (kernel 6.18.23-Unraid, Docker 29.3.1, QEMU 10.2.2, libvirt 12.2.0, etc.), and appended “Prerelease tester notes.” Attention: Docker MAC migration, internal-boot operational constraints, and storage zfs_arc_max migration notes.

Poem

🐰 I hopped from beta into RC bright,
Notes rewritten by soft moonlight.
Docker, storage, kernels too —
I nudged the MACs and cleared the queue.
Carrots saved, the release takes flight!

143-143: Link this API line item to the exact 4.32.3 release if available.

Using the generic releases page makes auditing harder. A direct tag/release URL for 4.32.3 would improve traceability.

- Line 36: The release note mentions "libpng" CVE remediation but the base
distro package list doesn't show a libpng version; either add an explicit libpng
package/version entry in the base-distro section (so readers can verify the fix)
or edit the security bullet "Update `bind` and `libpng` to fix outstanding CVEs"
to remove the claim about libpng (or indicate it’s handled upstream) and link to
the package list or CVE entry; update the "libpng" text in the release note and
the base distro package list consistently so the change is traceable.

- Purpose: resolve review feedback about an untraceable libpng security mention.

- Before: the security section named libpng, but the base distro package list did not include a libpng version.

- Why: release-note security claims should map cleanly to package entries or avoid unsupported package references.

- What: remove the libpng claim and keep the security note scoped to bind, which is listed in the base distro package updates.

- How: edits only docs/unraid-os/release-notes/7.3.0.md and validates with targeted markdown checks.
- Purpose: keep the 7.3.0-rc.1 Docker MAC address notes concise.

- Before: the Docker section included both the new fixed-MAC field and a separate preservation fix bullet.

- Why: the two bullets described overlapping behavior and made the changelog read as duplicated.

- What: keep the new fixed-MAC template field entry and remove the older preservation fix line.

- How: updates only docs/unraid-os/release-notes/7.3.0.md and validates with targeted markdown checks.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟡 Minor

Fix broken bold markdown formatting.

The closing ** is on its own line (line 69), which breaks the bold formatting. It should be moved to the end of the sentence on line 68.
