Hi, all. I have a patch available for the 2.3 tree, although it
needs some testing. If people are willing to try it out, crash
their systems, run 'lcrash', etc., with it, and let myself and
Tom know how well it is or is not working, I can send the patch
to people individually.
The code has changed a little; we now use kiobufs directly, and
we don't require the raw I/O patches from SGI. We also work on
IDE disks, which is really nice for IA32 systems.
I'm working on the Alpha version, and trying to debug one problem
I have currently in the code (compression turned on seems to cause
occasional data offset problems in the dump). But with that
excluded, there is a patch ready for test.
Let me know what you think.
