I'm not fond of one-size fits all principle. If an image is correct, I'll stick with it, till next treshold. At the moment, I fill relaxed, since both systems work as the best machines I had in my life. As I stated before, I could stand bugs and do not expect "perfect" system anytime. Freebsd suits me. If I have a problem, I wait or go around, or forget the issue. My bad was that release problem sinchronized with my power surge issue. At any other time, I'd be patient and you'd never hear of me. > Sorry, but that's the best I can offer right now. Wrong. You made psychological thing and I could be not worried about state of OS. If this image differs from the final one, I do not care, if they are the same in parts that matter to me. I will upgrade at the next . Best regards Zoran
