First, an explanation: In 3.0, we're no longer using booteasy, we're using Robert Nordier's boot0 replacement which is hosted entirely under FreeBSD (a major win). However, some people have also reported big problems with this so, for the mean time, I've decided to go back to booteasy with sysinstall until we figure out what's going on. The 3.0 SNAPshots will still continue to use the boot0 code so those wishing to help Robert figure out what's going on can and should continue to install snaps from current.freebsd.org. The 3.0 release bits on ftp.freebsd.org (and the 3.0-RELEASE CDROMs) will continue to use the older booteasy bits for now; I've just re-rolled and copied over boot floppy bits which do so. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
