Hi,

binaries for the NetBSD 1.5.1_BETA2 test release can now be picked
up from

   ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/arch/alpha/snapshot/20010516-1.5.1_BETA2/

Notable additions since 1.5.1_BETA (please consult CHANGES-1.5.1
for the full list of updates):

 o DHCP bugfixes
 o Accton en2242 support added to tlp(4)
 o sysctl variable net.inet.ip.maxfragpackets introduced
 o Stability improvements for pciide Promise Ultra/100 adapters
 o Many manual page fixups (xrefs +++)
 o In Linux emulation, return ENOSYS instead of doing SIGSYS on
   unimplemented syscalls
 o 3Com ex(4) driver improved in 100Mbit/s operation
 o Stray machine checks are dealt with properly (i.e. ignored)

At this point I expect (and hope for) no major additions until 1.5.1
is released, so please test new and old features, and report any
problems via normal channels (i.e. use send-pr).

Best regards,

- H=E5vard
