A few people have asked me this, I believe it to be better to install
thecurrent snapshot that pk made a few months back.

I tried going from 1.0 to current when I first started to get into netbsd.
It was not a pleasant time :-) I lost lots of hair, thankfully though lots
of people here helped me out.

I'm about to newfs netbsd.demon.co.uk and reinstall it completely, I've a
funny feeling I may have broke something on it as I'm having all sorts of
problems with hanging processes, file locking and lots of other stuff. I
still convinced the process hangs are esp.c. I'm taring my home directory
to DAT hopefully esp will last that long...

Regards,
neil.
Neil.
