Thnx...
Hmm... I need installer with special kernel... Is it possible without
building full release?
All my FreeBSD-equipped computers are production ones, so I could not
try 5.0 on real hardware yet. And I don't have enough HDD space on
my 4.x servers to hold CVS & build full 5.0-RELEASE only for custom
kernel.
