I think it's a big waste of time to have to do all that everytime I'm loading the second map so can you please tell me what to do or if you are going to provide a patch, or if in the next version it will be fixed. Thanks!
First off - You don't have disconnect to load the new map. There is a command available to change map without disconnecting You and players currently connected to Your server. The command's name is "changelevel". Usage - type in console:

changelevel map_name
for example
changelevel cs_militia

I hope this solution will save Your time a bit...

Second off - there is not CS 1.1.1.1. This number with four digits it's probably HL (halflife) version number. The correct CS version number is 1.5 or 1.6 (I guess You don'y use some older version). This 1.1.1.1 seems for me like old HL (so with CS1.5 version). But let us know by more exactly description, what do You have. If You have CS1.6 with Steam or non-Steam version maybe, or this is CS1.5 with HL version 1111. Also type in console (like sPlOtYgOn suggested You):

meta list

and let us know what do You see.

About this "since it's beta" - You have to know this beta is much more stable, better and more advanced in coding than official release R2.1. We recommend You and all people to use always the latest beta. Only linux based systems have some trouble with latest beta (and whole some betas) but we are trying to narrow the source of the problem. I want after this linux fix create some new official release with docs and waypoints and bot dll and replace finally the current official release.

[EDIT]
This 1.1.1.1 could be also some number of retail CS version (without separate halflife). I don't know if You have the latest upgrade installed to it.
