[OmniOS-discuss] SECURITY AND FEATURE UPDATES for OmniOS LTS, Stable, and old-Stable

[Gary Gendel]

Thanks for the update.  I'm on 151018 and after the update it wouldn't 
boot so I rolled back to the previous BE.  I got a whole lot of PCI 
overflow errors (I think since these were on the console) and then it hung.

I suspect the bge network driver as this has caused me issues in the 
past which was the impetus for my move from OI to OmniOS.  I didn't see 
anything interesting in the kernel logs.  I'd like to try again but 
where can I find information on the proper way to capture the problem so 
I can report it properly.
