Before anything else: thanks for the _excellent_ work, I still have to be
disappointed by the FreeBSD project.
Now, the shotgun.
Configuration is a 5x86 AMD / 133MHz, w/ 16MB and 1.2 GB IDE Q. Fireball.
2 things which might have been brought up regarding the installation:
- during the installation process, in vty0 ("graphical" progression), when I
scroll back with SCRL LOCK to look at kernel messages, if I return to
normal mode and press SCRL LOCK again, the keyboard is frozen, only
solution is to unplug/replug keyboard. Could be puzzling for somebody
new to FreeBSD (would they know about screen scrollback then ;-)
When the system is up and running, no problem with that...
- when re-running sysinstall, and setting and FTP server to install from
manually: if, once the setting has been made, I go into
Options->Media->Ftp again, bring up the list of FTP servers and press
ESC, sysinstall does a SIG 11.
1 thing which might be more due to my evil nature:
modload a first screen saver (e.g. blank), modload a second, 'forgetting'
to unload the first (e.g. green), set vidcontrol -t 1 to see the result,
nothing happens -- modunload _both_ savers, reload any, wait 1 second:
panic.
Ok, you have to be root and so, but I wonder if there's anyway to detect
conflicting symbols for existing LKM's.
Thanks for the great work,
-- Phil
