What was the panic? Where's the dump?
I've just put up review drafts for the Vinum chapter of the upcoming
fourth edition of "The Complete FreeBSD" at
http://www.vinumvm.org/cfbsd/vinum.pdf and
http://www.vinumvm.org/cfbsd/vinum.txt. It contains a considerable
amount of completely new material There may be some loose ends there.
I'd be interested in feedback.
Greg
