Hey,

Once again I changed from FreeBSD to DragonFly :)

Here's a list of a few problems I encountered and what I think
could be improved:
* After installation, my laptop BIOS hung up. I had to manually
   intercept the installation process and issue "fdisk -BIC". The "-C"
   option seems to be important here. This wasn't neccessary on
   NetBSD/FreeBSD. The -C option does not exist in FreeBSD's fdisk, maybe
   there do it more intelligently?
* "kldload if_ipw" led to a kernel panic, whereas if_ipw_load="YES" in
Can you give me more information about this panic?  Things like back trace...
How can I do that easily?
The panic switches into the kernel debugger. From there?
Thanks.

Regards,

  Michael
