I'm planning of installing FreeBSD 4.1-R, so here are the questions: 1) Is there hardware is supported under FreeBSD (seems to me that it is) 2) Is there some known issues with the described modules in FreeBSD 4.1-R i.e. vinum and nfs? 3) Should I upgrade it to -STABLE (I prefer not to), I was following this mailing list, and I think that I haven't seen anything related. Thank you in advance, P.S. could one suggest some filesystem torture tests? P.P.S. Yes, I think it belongs to freebsd-stable and not freebsd-questions --Roman Shterenzon, UNIX System Administrator and Consultant [ Xpert UNIX Systems Ltd., Herzlia, Israel.
