Jordan's comments are dead on - yes, there was a mistake, but it was fixed (hopefully), and the turnaround time was very fast. I don't think you'll see this kind of attention anywhere else - even in the linux community. As it stands, it should be a common-sense assumption that if you're an early adopter, you're taking on risks. I wouldn't even consider updating a "mission-critical" box without a CD version in hand, and perhaps you should take this approach as well. -- Brad Clawsie brad@yahoo-inc.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
