Just tried these and it locked up hard. Before the recent patches I could still get to the machine via its other ethernet interface, but now it locks it up completely and I have to power cycle the machine. I am running 2.2.8 on this machine. I'm going to load 3.x and see if that makes a difference. I need to find a machine to compile a kernel on. I can't bear the pain to compile on a 486. paul To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
