I went to install 5.2 tonight on a system that had 4.9 running flawlessly on it. I newfs'd the system, installed from cd and after configuring the interfaces, all was fine. Until I went to access the net. Throughput was horrible. 30 - 40 seconds for a telnet echo to reply after a keypress on an 3c509 nic (ep driver), then after recompiling kernel to add ipdivert, it simply went into a panic / reboot cycle with no alternative but to reinstall again. Single user mode, safe mode, and disabling acpi boot up's showed the same symptoms. The system is an amd k62 500 with 128mb ram with an ide drive. 1 x 3c509 nic and 1 x 3c905 nic. Are there known issues with the ep driver that I've been unable to locate yet? I put 4.9 back onto the system and all is well. Anyone else having any similar problems with 5.2?
