The 3.x-STABLE sys/i386/isa/if_ed.c can be obtained at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/src/sys/i386/isa/if_ed.c?rev=1.148.2.1 Guy Guy Helmer, Ph.D. Candidate, Iowa State University Dept. of Computer Science Research Assistant, Ames Laboratory --- ghelmer@scl.ameslab.gov Research Assistant, Dept. of Computer Science --- ghelmer@cs.iastate.edu http://www.cs.iastate.edu/~ghelmer To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
