It worked long enough for me to download the latest sid updates, and then froze during the middle of the install process. I had top going the whole time. CPU% was low, Memory usage was low... However, my hard drive light is always on when it freezes. Maybe something to do with the ide chipset config in the kernel?
Anyway, I switched back to 2.4.18. Everytime this happens, I go through dhcp hell, and everyone on my home network starts yelling.
I wouldn't even worry about upgrading except that I keep hoping that maybe a dri fix for my rage128 card will appear.
