installed the 20000717 snapshot, kde, linux emulation binaries, 
linux netscape, linux acrooread4 and lynx.
then used the system to test UPDATING procedure, 
/usr/src was nfs mounted through a nat. did buildkernel, 
installkernel, installworld - installworld errored.
(i've posted a message to stable).

noted a few nits in sysinstall:
1. from the main menu selecting S for Standard doesn't work, the 
other accelerators work.
2. during linux_lib load the update screen does not clear properly.
3. if USA resident is specified, still have to install rsaref 
manually.

noted a strange problem with kde lock function:
the lock button in kde locks the screen, but then i couldn't
unlock the screen by specifying the password. somehow the password
in /etc/passwd gets corrupted - the problem is repeatable. 
i installed des encryption.
