I don't know what it is or why it happens, but it really sucks. I want my 5.0! I tried installing 4.7, cvsup-ing to RELENG_5 (then to '.' cuz there is no RELENG_5. Why not?) but I can't get '.' to compile because gbde keeps failing, looking for rijlaen-alg-fast.c (i think i spelled that right) which isn't there. IN FACT, cvsup-ing didn't put anything in src/sys/crypto at all. So basically I'm staying with 4.7 because I can't find any way at all to get 5.0 to work. Any suggestions for either problem? I think that compiling my own kernel would prevent the panics (between Intel IDE, ACPI, and the P4, a kernel panic from a GENERIC kernel could be understandable, if disappointing) but I can't compile my own kernel because I can't make buildworld (and having a 5.0 kernel with a 4.7 world seems dumb to me :) Dana Lacoste Ottawa, Canada To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
