That's great. Is it possible to get a diff against some version of -current that i could put up on that CD-ROM? I'm planning an either 2.2-POST-BETA or 3.0-current SNAPshot on that CD, but would provide the SMP diffs for the curious. Are they kernel only, or is the userland code also affected? Any ``authoritative'' note about the status of the SMP work (known bugs, next steps) would also be appreciated, something i could leave on the CD as a README.SMP, for example. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ -- NIC: JW11-RIPE Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
