I did install snapshots of the 2.0-BETA from august and september (from
ftp2.fr.netbsd.org) and my Ultra10 keeps "freezing" when I come back to
work on the morning...

I had the console pluggued on (via minicom) on my NetBSD/i386 but there
was no message and everything was locked. I couldn't do anything else
that switch it off :(

Could it be PROM related ?
I updated mine with the last available version :
**************************
Sun Ultra 5/10 UPA/PCI (UltraSPARC-IIi 440MHz), Keyboard Present
OpenBoot 3.31, 256 MB (50 ns) memory installed, Serial #13002900.
...
ok .version
Release 3.31 Version 0 created 2001/07/25 20:36
OBP 3.31.0 2001/07/25 20:36
POST 3.1.0 2000/06/27 13:56
ok
**************************

I also "set-defaults" several time to ensure I didn't set anything
bad... It is so sad as this machine works like a charms on
OpenBSD/3.6/sparc64 :(

Is there any PROM version or setenv recomandation ?
Anyone has an U10 working OK ? =)
