Hmm... Its good to see that there are people in the world who don't think we're a food company (for the non-locals, there is a Sysco in New England (USA) that does food distribution. They always confuse them with us (Cisco)). >1) Does the core OS still work, and >2) Does the networking still work? > >1) Is usually well checkable with a "make world", and >2) could (I imagine) be well tested with a make world with > NFS mounted disks, possibly using another FreeBSD box as > a router for extra stress. > >Is this what you are looking for? Mmmm... No. _I_ (read: Not Cisco as a whole) am looking for tests that will help locate bugs pre-release copies of the OS so that there is still time for others to debug the code before Jordan cuts the release. Its more of a "lets help the project by coordinating testing" thing.... -Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majord...@freebsd.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
