Hi Steve.
I updated my system this afternoon with this snapshot; everything was
successful.
However... as with the previous snapshot (June 16 sources), the "reboot"
command causes a kernel panic. This happens immediately after the
machine announces that it doesn't trust itself to update the RTC on
shutdown. I wrote down the precise details, if it will be of any help:
sd0(ncrscsi0:0:0:0): polling command not done
panic: scsipi_execute_xs
Stopped in pid 262 (reboot) at _cpu_Debugger+0x6: unlk a6
<!-- 10 minutes of time or so pass -->
For whatever reason, I typed reboot again when su-ed to root (as opposed
to in Single User mode as before) and a panic did not ensue. Make of
that also, what you will.
Final comment, after "cd /tmp"-ing and "pax -zrvpe -f
/blah/blah/etc.tgz"-ing, my root "/" was filled with what looks like the
contents of "/dev". Perhaps the paths need to be verified. I could have
done it wrong though, I just don't think I did, that means little,
however.
Sorry to burden you with these small comments; everything else worked
fantastically, though!
All the best.
