I am a big fan of staying stable, but after buying the 4.2 CD and installing clean, it seemed to work better than the 4.2 stable I had built by rebuilding since 3.2. Maybe it was operator error, but the clean install seemed to run much better. For example, the previous installation took a long time for the buffer daemon to shut down. The CD installation is much faster. Is this a valid argument for installing from CD, or did I just miss some vital instructions somewhere? Or do glitches like this generally only occur over major releases? jm -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathon McKitrick -- jcm@freebsd-uk.eu.org To Microsoft: "Your tyranny I was part of, is now cracking on every side.
