Hi I'v been compiling the kernel from ftp.kcl.ac.uk, but I want to get hold of
the latest sources to be able to compile the StrongARM version etc. I beleave
that I need to use sup but I don't know where I need to sup from or what I 
should ask for. Can someone tell me where, what and anything else I need.

As a second question the other day when updating the sets to 1.2-beta the 
system started reporting the following.

Oct 23 02:00:04 court4 /netbsd: ffs_update: bad indirect addr (1): inode=122882 
4194304/00400000 ip=f1589200 adr=f15892b0
Oct 23 02:00:04 court4 /netbsd: inode vp: type VBLK, usecount 640, writecount 0,
 refcount 52,
Oct 23 02:00:04 court4 /netbsd:         tag VT_UFS, ino 5924, on dev 16, 0

This appears to be a disc related problem and when I subsequentially ran fsck
each of the ino values appeared as a lost inode. It then took two runs of 
fsck to clear these - the first died half way through (reset button job).

This happened with the atapi-4339 kernel. I have since compiled a new kernel 
(as above) and the problem has yet to repeat. Any help / advice ?
