Last night I used the nfs mounted /usr/src & /usr/obj capability to build 4.7-RC on my dual 1Ghz PIII and installed it on my wimpy AMD-K6 300 this morning. It worked flawlessly. The alternative was to wait something like 3 weeks for the K6/300 (w/ only 64M RAM) to finish buildworld / buildkernel. Thanks a bunch for a wonderful operating system. - Michael Hogsett P.S. The AMD machine is actually a ThinkNIC (www.thinknic.com) box hacked to accept a 2.5" HDD and an "upgraded" CPU. It is a very cute little box. Copyright (c) 1992-2002 The FreeBSD Project.
