Unfortunately, hme errors keep me from getting all the way up with the 6/26 kernel: hme0: buffer overflow, ri=73; flags=0x45ea7870 . Starting final network daemons: NFS access cache time=2. hme0: buffer overflow, ri=73; flags=0x45ea7870 hme0: error signaled, status=0x20001 hme0: error signaled, status=0x20001 hme0: error signaled, status=0x20001 hme0: error signaled, status=0x20001 hme0: error signaled, status=0x20001 hme0: too may errors; not reporting any more (HANGS) but my ultra10 still (barely) works so I'll try and build a newer kernel.
