Its always nice to get feedback from someone for whom things went right. I do
know how frustrating it is being on the receiving end of bugs though after
having spent the entirety of the last month trying to get a commercial Unix
working and installing CD after CD of patches but getting nowhere fast
(fortunately I'm paid to do this...). I just hope our level of support is
better value for money... :-)

SCSI is a particular problem at the moment because few of the core team use it
for hard disks so we don't see the bugs.

Cheers

Rob
