I will want to update my NetBSD installation from 9.99.82 from source and am
inclined toward 10.99.1 rather than 10.0_BETA. I use "cvs up -dP -A" to update
the source on base system and pkgsrc, currently am on native X.
How will I be able to access (read-only OK) FFS2ea from NetBSD 9.99.82, and
what about compatibility with FreeBSD regarding file system? I assume no
compatibility with Linux.
Will I have to worry about the entropy problem when building or updating
packages from 9.99.82 to 10.99.1, or, less likely, 10.0_BETA? Has that been
fixed?
Tom
