Although the port was added in December and tagged in both 4.10-RELEASE and HEAD at that time, it must not have MFC'ed-RELENG_5 until after 5.2.1 was released (in January, IIRC), therefore a CDROM ports tree of 5.2.1 wouldn't include nvnet. It is there now. I don't know if it works. Grit your teeth and hang on! (Seriously, I really doubt it'd be in there if there were any serious problems at all, but YMMV) Kevin Kinsey ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
