Alternately, you can boot from a cd mount and chroot to your os /

I was reading about the new if_bridge driver, and the ability of any
packet filter to interface with it that uses pfil hooks. But I can't
seem to find any documentation that says whether pf is such a packet
filter? Would someone enlighten me if pf is useable with the new
if_bridge driver?
Thanks

Everything worked great until I recompiled the kernel. I used the
GENERIC config file edited in two ways:
I removed all the "cpu" lines at the top except for "cpu I686_CPU" since
this machine has dual p3 733s. Secondly, I uncommented "options SMP"
and "options APIC_IO" to enable SMP per the comm
