. I see. BTW, I confirmed that mpt worked on the November snapshot except the data transfer rate was 6.6MB/s. Is it worth trying the latest current? Just fixed, I think, as of last night. ___ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
