In FreeBSD 4.x my statclock is broken, but in -CURRENT, both rtc0 and the other clock are there, just as they should be. Would taking the apm out of the kernel cause this to stop working? Also, maybe a suggestion for Mr. Losh, Maybe there should be a set of -CURRENT install disks with cardbus instead of regular pcmcia; I had to check out a 5.0 tree on my 4.4-STABLE machine and compile a cardbus kernel and put it on the 1st boot disk in order to install. Would it be to hard to generate both floppy disk immages in a make release?
