Another release of the user-mode port of 2.3.99-pre9 is available.
NOTE: The fhd device and its use of block major 62 are now GONE. If you
haven't already, you need to update your filesystems to use ubd, block major
98, instead. Your fstab should refer to /dev/ubd/* rather than /dev/disk/*
(if you're using devfs) or /dev/ubd* rather than /dev/fhd* (if you're not, and
in this case, you also need to create the /dev/ubd* entries that you use).
A number of bugs have been fixed, including the sporadic process seg faults
and the network hang.
Disk I/O is now asynchronous and interrupt driven. This is done by having a
separate I/O thread which actually does the operations, and notifies the
kernel when they are done.
