Running FreeBSD 2.0

The problem in a nutshell:
-------------------------
umount -a -t nfs
umount -a -t ufs
umount -a -t procfs	all run without error, but fail
			to unmount anything.

			the corollary is that occasionally
			the system allows me to mount nfs
			filesystems twice. 

			and

umount -a -t cd9660	barfs with "umount: cd9660: unknown mount type"

-------

I tried the January (complete) snapshot of the OS, with similar results.

I'm currently running the February 10th (complete) snapshot, and the
problems still persist.



Other pet peeves ( maybe features, not bugs ):
=============================================

My soundblaster 16 won't work ( according to the docs its not supported,
			        however the information in "Voxware" leads
				me to believe there is a chance it may work
				)

My 3Com Etherlink 3 card only works on the AUI port 
				( I read the newsgroup references to fixing
				  this with a "link" paraemeter given to
				  ifconfig combined with reprogramming the
				  card to use the UTP port, but no dice, she
				  still doesn't work.
				)

My 3Com Etherlink 3 card barfs a lot with error 2002, apparently it doesn't
like our level of network traffic ??


The FreeBSD boot: program needs to do away with the really hokey "hd(x,x)"
device. I would like to hardcode a non-standard boot disk as default, eg
sd(2,a), however since I have a couple of ide disks (which may soon be going
away) I am relunctant to, because the "hd" number of my scsi disk changes
depending on how many ide's are installed on my system (ack!).



Though I griping here, overall I'm very impressed with the product, and am
recommending it to folks around here. Especially impressive is the memory
management (as compared to linux 1.1.75).
