According to /pub/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current, some of this stuff has been fixed already; it's probably a good citizen gesture to notify people anyway. * sysinstall left zero-length "kernel.config" in root directory * old pre-upgrade kernel left in /kernel (which made mounting filesystems a bit interesting -- /kernel.GENERIC to the rescue!) * ijppp was severely broken: -ddial gave EINTR in OpenModem(), normal mode failed CHAP authentication for no apparent reason. Used CVS CD from the snapshot distribution to check-out a 970701 version of ijppp which worked, enabling me to ftp -current's ijppp which also worked. To be expected on a snapshot CD, I suppose :-) * union_mod.o was out of date. Rebuilt copy worked fine. Was painless apart from all that <grin> >How-To-Repeat: Upgrade from 2.2.2-RELEASE to October's SNAP. >Fix: See above. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
