That's bizarre - I've heard of no one else with such a problem. Are you
positive it was the superblocks it didn't like?

And this was most definitely *not* the problem described in:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.6-RELEASE/ERRATA.TXT ?
Just making sure here before we go off on a chase.

I don't think it should, if it's the tun0 device you're really talking
about here.

Which is why you put it in /etc/ppp/ppp.linkup
