- Yes you can install it. BUT it replaces a couple of the 4.1.1 .o's with
- 4.1 equivalents. One of the things you lose is clustering on scsi
- disks. Clustering is a really big win in performance. You also get a
- lot of the 4.1 ufs bugs back :-(
-
- Options are to just install the new utilities (fsck, etc) and not
- rebuild the kernel. This will give you some improvement in time to
- check disks at bootup without adding any 4.1 problems.
-
- I guess you have a valid reason for not upgrading to 4.1.[23] otherwise
- that would be your best option as quickcheck is fully integrated in
- those releases.
