Hi,


Just my view as a beginner with this system (or BFU :-)).Using -current or following -stable is easy.I was trying following -current ,but found,that using snapshots is soooooo easy and that following -current is not really good idea for people like me,which are in phase of learning this system.


So now I use snapshots on my desktop at home and in Qemu.I have -release only in MS Virtual Server for some databases needed for testing.And this is not so important,so I can wait for next -release with upgrade.


Tomas

Hi,


I've reinstalled OpenBSD 4.3 from scratch and tried to set up networking with the rtw driver but I couldn't make it work with dhclient..


Is this a known issue ? I've updated /usr/src to a recent current tree but I'm stuck trying to compile the base system... :-)


I thought maybe rtw0 will work in 4.4-current, or perhaps the nic is damaged, but apparently it seem to work well with ifconfig, so I'm kinda clueless. Any pointers how to get rtw0 working in OpenBSD 4.3 would be kindly appreciated.


Thanks!
