If you can, please CVSup and then > build a GENERIC -current kernel and see if it boots. Depends on what you mean by latest. If you mean post-ithreads, then I've booted the following with SMPng API UP1000 Compaq XP1000 (I'd expect XP900/DS10/DS20/DP264 to also work) DEC AlphaStation 500/266 DEC DPW433a (Miata GL) As of last week, there were stil massive stability problems. Eg, my Miata-GL cannot make it through an installworld w/o locking up. (or at least couldn't last week). Heck, it cannot even reinstall the linux_base port reliably.
