FTP'd the floppies from the alpha tree under the 3.3 release the other day - the system boots but it doesn't quite understand the network card (thinks the link is down) and doesn't seem to see the CD, so going forward with the install is a bit tough. This is a Digital Personal Workstation 500MHz/644MB. I also have an XP1000 (the new Compaq branded EV6 box) and will try it as soon as I can get SRM loaded onto it. thanks -dave To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
