Etch Upgrade - Sweet As
I upgraded my little file & print server and firewall (in UML) VIA C3 box on the weekend.
Everything went perfectly smooth, it even worked to upgrade via the apt-proxy that's running on the box. Super cool!
The only issue I had was non-working HTTP connections via my Telstra Bigpond cable connection after the upgrade of the firewall UML. In the end I fixed it by forcing the same MTU on the cable-facing as on the LAN-facing interface. It may be related to NAT, but it worked with the same 2.6.18 kernel before the upgrade, so maybe it is an iptables thing.
