2.0 release

Has anyone been successful in booting 2.0 release? I just built it
today from an i386 machine. I must have had some problem with the nfs
mount from the kernel before just after it got the address. So I
recompiled with root on nfs. Then I got a panic immediately after it
picked up the address from dhcp in mount_mfs. So I commented
everything out relating to mfs, and now it hangs somwhere after
"prepostorous clock chip setting" but I don't know where (I need a VGA
adapter I think).

I searched a little and saw something in June that was fixed, but that
was in current.

Maybe I'll try building current and try again.

NFS root hang

I had a similar problem with an NFS-rooted 2.0_BETA iMac.  The NFS
root client would hang somewhere in the startup process.  The problem
went away when I changed the NFS server from a 2.0_BETA sparc64
(didn't work) to a Solaris 9 sparc64 (worked).  Also, a 1.6ZG alpha
works as the NFS server.

What is your NFS server?  Do you use the NFS server for other things?

You can see if your problem is the same as mine by using tcpdump---you
should see the NFS retransmits after it hangs.

good chance that you have a different problem, though.
