I usually stick to just running -RELEASE but since I had some time
I thought I'd try 5.0-DP2 and now have a few questions.
1. I did an ftp install. My machine has two RealTek 8029 cards in
it but only one of them has a cable attached. When sysinstall asked
me which interface to use it gave me

Yes. gcc 3.x is slower, and

Can you log in with plain rsh? Do the

[Well, I'm Cc:ing -current anyway -- dhw]
Out of curiosity, how much slower is a 5.x kernel compilation than a 4.x, on
average? My 486, 66 MHz and 16 MB RAM, compiles a 4.x kernel in about 3

That should, at least, provide a reasonably valid set of comparisons.
Thanks.
I suppose Robert's results might be abnormally long if -current requires a lot

It's often more efficient to use binary installations/upgrades than
source, on slow machines. For example, I build world on a fast
machine, mount via NFS and then installworld on my slower machines.
Quite so -- not only
