I just also saw the same info in some service training docs for the 2100. So it might be correct. We can always put this in HARDWARE.TXT (i.e. I will do that of course). Tomorrow we will know more.

Instead a panic is done ;-) W/ -- Wilko Bulte Arnhem, the Netherlands wilko@freebsd.org http://www.freebsd.org http://www.nlfug.nl To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
