I just installed the latest snapshot available from
current.freebsd.org (20010618, I think) and then went
from there to the latest sources using CVSup.  That
was on Thursday evening.  Buildworld etc. went without
a problem, and the box (a dual Celeron-466) is running
happily since then, with SMP enabled, Soft-updates and
what-have-you.

Of course you should read src/UPDATING and have an eye
on this mailing list and on the commits.

Regards

PS:  My reason to try out -current was the umass driver.
I was hoping to get a USB-IDE box running, but it does
not look like it's willing to work with FreeBSD.  :(
