The system seems stable and after recompiling top and xperfmon everything seems to be working correctly. I have two small nits to pick with the installation- (1) My first attempt to upgrade from a partition which was (accidently) not mounted gave me an error message that bin, man, proflibs etc were not found. Upon pressing enter the installation proceeded to work on my /etc and /dev directories even though it hadn't actually extracted anything. Maybe there should be some other default behaviour in this case? (2) /etc/dumpdates is cleared with the new installation. Why?? Regards & looking forward to the full 2.2 release!
