No, I *tried* to update to 4.9-prerelease as of Sep 13th. The problem is that networking seems to be failing in the 4.9-prerelease kernel. I build on one system and test on a second system, installing via nfs. Following the nsame steps I always follow to install a new kernel and world fails when I try and install the world running the new kernel, as the nfs mount never happens. Trying to ping the build system results in "Host is down" messages. I can ping localhost and the ip address of the test machine with no problems; those both use the loopback network. The interface that's failing is xl0. Does anyone have an xl that's working with 4.9-prerelease? How about anyone else having network problems with 4.9-prelease. A solution would be best of all, of course. Thanks, http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Network/Unix/Perforce consultant, email for more information.
