As the mail says, there is quite a bit of stuff to move from rc.conf to conf.d/. I also just converted to using the new networking configuration, and am very pleased. I use dhclient for DHCP so that I can get ntp, dns, and wins servers all setup correctly if provided by the server, and this is now fully supported by the networking scripts. It also supports wpa_supplicant or iwconfig for configing wireless settings, and can even handle multiple wireless networks!! Nice work! My system is fairly complex...a laptop running LVM2 (even /) on top of loop-AES on top of RAID0 (md), although all of that gets setup in my initrd, so I doubt it could break though a simple update. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Mike, Where do I report problems? I seem to have a pretty disastorious reboot! I am writing from the machine, so X and netowrking are up, but many drivers didn't load and I am seeing many versions of this message in demsg: (replace agpgart with many names...) agpgart: version magic '2.6.11-gentoo-r6 preempt PENTIUMIII gcc-3.3' should be '2.6.11-gentoo-r6 preempt PENTIUM4 gcc-3.3' I hope someone can point me in the right direction to get this fixed ASAP.

After some Googling it appears this kernel is built for Pentium III even though the hardware (and make.conf) say Pention 4. I am rebuilding the kernel and modules for Pentium 4. - Mark On 6/2/05, Mark Knecht [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Mike, Where do I report problems? I seem to have a pretty disastorious reboot!
