Dear All,
  A bug to report: I am currently running 3.0 (SMP, CAM, a.out, no SU) on
my desktop, I have just been trying to install 3.0 on a Laptop via PLIP.
All goes well and I can bring the interface up and both sides can see each
other, however after a couple of minutes of transfering files across the
desktop machine locks up hard - does not respond to pings (from either lp0
or the ethernet), does not respond to ctrl-alt-delete or anything on the
console.  No resort apart from the little red switch :( no dump, no
nothing.  My (uneducated) guess is that it is something to do with the
large numbers of interupts generated by the parallel port. 

Is anyone else running -current and using PLIP and able to reproduce this?
I will try a uni-processor kernel tomorrow and see if that helps.

-Matt
