iwi0 and spontaneous reboot on /etc/rc.d/netif restart

Hi, over the last 6 months or so, I have been so unfortunate to experience spontaneous reboots when I restart netif. Most of the time it leaves no trace in logs, but this time I was fortunate enough to be able to scrible down something while in console. I hope someone can shed some light on this

iwi and wlan-cloning

Hi all, After installing 8.0-release I followed all the howtos on cloning my iwi0 device to wlan0 to setup the wireless. The manual configuration: ifconfig wlan create wlandev iwi0 wpa_supplicant -c /etc/wpa_supplicant -i wlan0 dhclient wlan0 works well. However, trying to get this done

Hi again! I assume that it is not advisable, but what can I expect to happen if I try to use packages for 7-stable on a 7.0-release system? No, it is not advisable. I tried: http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2008-June/177553.html Thanks for pointing this out! Not

7-stable packages on 7.0-release system?

Hi all, I assume that it is not advisable, but what can I expect to happen if I try to use packages for 7-stable on a 7.0-release system? The reason is simple: I have a low-end laptop, so I want to avoid building as much as possible. However, the packages from release are rarely, if ever,
