Well, I just downloaded and burnt 5.2.1 Alpha and tried to boot it up and it
bailed out while booting (just after an EISA Bridge message) with:

Unexpected machine check

Well I guess that means I now am stuck with Tru64. 5.1 Didn't load (doesn't
seem to have drivers for the DAC960 included in the 5.1 Kernel), so I guess
I will install 4.something and then maybe try an upgrade.

Damn, I would really have preferred Open Source. Any suggestions? Are any
other BSDs more complete in there 2100 support?
