Hi all, I'm searching for a "stable" bsd version for my laptop. For a while, I was running BSD 2.1, but last year after I upgraded to 2.2-current version (I don't remember the dat), NFS mounts stopped working. As this finally got tiresome, last week I tried upgrading to 3.0-stable (the snap from 0208), but after the ELF upgrade, I got messages about the firewall being enabled, but no rules. I tried to add rules with ipfw, but got an "operation not supported" (or something). So I tried a full install (starting from floppy boot). Same result. So I tried 3.1-BETA (0214 snap). The install hangs after mounting the distribution directory from my SunOS (4.1.4) host. So instead of further guessing, I'm hoping for suggestions. Hardware: TI5020 laptop (pentium 75) Networking: 3M 3C589C. What FreeBSD version am I most likely to be able to use with above? Thanks..
