I've been working on hardware support. Several users have been having problems running MidnightBSD on newer hardware.

src/sys/dev/ata

Last night, I merged some things from FreeBSD to support newer ATA and SATA controllers form NVIDIA, Intel, and AMD into CURRENT. I also added a few to 0.2 that I can test here. We've got a few devices that FreeBSD does not support as well.

src/sys/dev/msk

I added an experimental msk(4) to 0.2 and CURRENT. It is built as a module only at this time. I'm also experimenting with a device on my iMac Core 2 Duo and msk(4). To test this, kldload if_msk

src/bin/sh

sh changes are now available on 0.2 and CURRENT which fix some GNU configure scripts like those found in recent versions of graphviz.

src/bin/*

I've brought in several changes from FreeBSD 6.3 to CURRENT. Several commands have updated man pages, new flags, and bug fixes. bin/cp needs the most testing.
