: Hello,
: 
: Just FYI, I've just checked that I have the full complement of boards (ISA ne2 
: at isa0 port 0x280/32 irq 9 under Open, PCI under ??? and PCMCIA running 
: flawlessly under both FreeBSD current and post 6.0-RC1)
: 
: I planned to convert the old OpenBSD machine (with the ISA board) to at least 
: dual-boot with FreeBSD-6.0, but as I use qemu to prepare the partition image, 
: I'm a bit stuck for now.
: 
: Is there an iso image for a recent -current ? I had a look at the former 
: japanese snapshot site, but it seems to only follow 5.4-Stable.

I'll be fixing this in the next day or three and it will be MFC'd from
head into RC2 when that happens.  I'm not sure where the snapshots
are, but there's a patch floating around to get around the qemu issue
just posted if you can't wait.  I plan on trying it now with RC1.  I
also plan on looking into the ne2000.c emulation to see why things are
failing (eg, is it a flaw in the RTL8029 emulation, or a flaw in if_ed
somewhere).
