I've been working with a 386SX25 -- since my 486 was out for repair. I found the performance and stability as good as 1.1.5.1 already. The 486 returned after some chip and battery replacement surgery. I quickly booted 2.0.5 -- I forgot how good FreeBSD could be on a relatively quick machine. X and Netscape performed nicely. A powerhit cost me some files. (#$@#!@#^ New Jersey shore thunderstorms). I noticed there's no longer a lost+found directory created when newfs builds a file system -- is there a reason? (I'm going back to the 2.0.5 system to install news.)
