For a while, I had warned the -current > mailing list before making my "commit." I will resume that procedure. That'd be nice. I'm certainly not complaining, one expects some volatility in current, but potential storm warnings where possible, are nice :-) BTW I rebuilt with a cvs export -D1-Sep src & that got both boxes stable, so I'm now taking 1 of my 2 boxes right up to current. > I hope to have a dual p6, so > watch out SMP guys :-)...

In theory I have 2 boxes, 1 stable (lower case) & 1 current, but actualy both were current to the same bad time window, so I was off line for a while. Keep up the good work John :-) kernel people are hard to find ! Julian -- Julian H. Stacey jhs@freebsd.org http://www.freebsd.org/~jhs/
