I have encountered the following bugs / problems: 1) the lpt driver (yet again) does not work with my Epson FX-85. It didn't work in 1.1 beta, and I have lost my copy of the lpa driver I used to use with 386BSD-0.0 :-( Has anybody out there got a copy of lpt.c that woks with the FX-85 ? 2) The CDIOCEJECT ioctl does not work if the drive is still accessed, I think. Well, I find it a little difficult to do an ioctl to a non-open drive... 3) the packages-1.1/xcdplayer keeps dumping core on SIGSEGV 4) the bootblocks do not work on root filesystems that use 16k/2k blocksize, even when re-compiled with the appropriate #define in both copies of the sys/param.h However, the system *does* give better I/O performance on the disks :) -Bernard
