I tried to bring up lp0 between a 2.0 and a 2.0.5 system
and it failed on the 2.0 with massive errors:

wraith% netstat -i
Name  Mtu   Network     Address            Ipkts Ierrs    Opkts Oerrs  Coll
lp0*  1500  <Link>                           222   385      144   137     0
lp0*  1500  pele        wraith.wraith.s      222   385      144   137     0

I was using a new 6' laplink cable from frys.

I'm guessing, but it seems like lp0 is broken for 2.0...

Anyone else try lp0?
