Hi,

For the past year, I've been developing bootable FreeBSD 4.x-based CD-ROM
based distributions (I started doing this before I learned about FreeSBIE).
My distribution is targeted for USB 1.0 CD-ROM drives.

Currently, I don't have EHCI enabled in my CD's boot kernel,
because of past instability.  I've noticed a lot of merges/updates
these days to the EHCI code in the 4.x tree.

Does anyone have experience with the lastest EHCI code in the FreeBSD 4.x
branch and USB 2.0 based devices such as CD-ROM drives
or USB keys?

Thanks.
