Sounds like an excellent idea to me to be honest. I've been glancing thru
GENERIC yesterday, not finding anything on SMP. I still don't have the
AS8400 up to -stable so I did not pursue it further. But I plan to once
I have a -stable disc that I can 'dd'. And use that 'dd' clone to 
use as a system disc to become -current.

tnx
