Rebuilt world and kernel about 20 minutes ago, now XDM cores, along with
login, I've had to fall back to single user mode, whoever is workin' on this
let me know if you commit some fixes, I'll be awake for a few hours and I'd
love to test them (read as "love to have my box working again" ;'D).

Ten'th update to the new ATA/ATAPI driver:
It been awhile since the last major update, as a benefit there
are some cool things in this one (and new bugs probably :) )...
The ATA driver has grown "real" timeout support for all devices.
This means that it should be possible to get in contact with

You haven't given a lot of information. Was this the result

Or did you just update

This is a request for a review. This patch fixes a bug in specfs
relating to dealing with the EOF condition of a block device.
