Re: alpha status?

I had pretty much no luck with 4.2 and my DS10. It kept crashing  
reporting IRQ errors. I even tried removing the graphics card and  
using the serial console. It still crashed so I gave up and moved  
onto my Sun Blade 100.

I've never had much luck with the alpha's and OpenBSD to be honest.  
The XP1000 would have random network lockups after a few days or  
running.

I'm sure there will be some stability breakthroughs soon so don't  
give up on the port.
