Since some weeks I'm running FreeBSD-current. I'm very satisfied
and it's stable for me. (Asus P55 PCI board, WD8013, 2940, ...).
I'm running a NNTP, WWW, proxy server and do a lot of things using
dialup PPP. If you can't wait for 2.2, then you should sup -current
and build a new OS in single user mode by saying 'make world'.

Don't forget do ftp the fixit floppy and to make backup's first.
Befor actually doing the make world you need the two simple
commands:

	# mount -at ufs
	# swapon -a

Otherwise it's difficult to find the source tree, and virtual
memory would be low ;-)
