I've been using 12.2(18) SXD5 for last 6 months and it's been quite 
stable for us.

Perhaps I should ask here....I was in the process of debugging issue of 
not being able to boot
the 12.2(18) SXF4 image from disk0: - it was a 76M image and we didn't 
have enough local
sup-bootflash memory.  I wanted to run that image for syslog v6 
support........anyone run into
this problem?
