freebsd stable - Dec 2005 - ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS

#options                ZERO_COPY_SOCKETS

What's the status of this in 6.0-R and 6-stable?  The idea of avoiding 
memory copies when possible seems really appealing for my 386, on 
which any little boost is significant. : )

So you can't use FreeBSD-6.0 and greater on 80386 anymore.

Hoi,
let me know how you got 6.0 running on i386 .. It sounds like the  
perfect way to spend some of the holidays ;) I've heard it won't run  
on a plain i386 out-of-the-box, what did you do to convince it to run?
