Re: ANNOUNCE: [FreeBSD-Announce] FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE is now available
Thanks for the great work. I installed it on a laptop PC, NEC VersaPro NX VA20C, for my friend. It works fine without any problem. You can see the /var/run/dmesg.boot at http://heimat.jp/~nakaji/FreeBSD/dmesg.boot.va20c But there was a problem when installing.

Anyway, 5.4-RELEASE is now working.
