Re: Weird VMD behaviour

Hi Omar, thanks for your reply, indeed I did, but, there seems to be a
problem with netstart and my wifi, on start NIC keep waiting for
connection...Just did a fw_update, worked fine ;)

nostromo# fw_update
fw_update: add vmm; update none; keep intel,inteldrm,iwn,uvideo

Gonna test again...

THANKS!!!
