I sent this last night, but I never saw it on the list, so I'm resending... I've got a new install of 4.1-RELEASE here. Hardware consists of a dual processor board (unknown brand), 2 Intel P2-300's, a single 128MB DIMM, onboard scsi (disabled), on a 13GB IDE drive. The machine boots and runs fine with a single processor. For testing purposes, I've swapped them around to make sure that both CPU's are working as they should. No problems there. When I boot up with the SMP kernel (only the SMP and APIC_IO lines uncommented) it hangs in the boot process at where it says "APIC_IO: testing 8254 interrupt delivery". At this point, the machine locks and requires me cycling power via the switch on the power supply. I'm at a loss. I've got a bank of dipdswitches on the board and have changed a few at random, but no luck so far. Without knowing the brand of the board, I'm not sure how I can take this any further. Any tips/ideas/suggestions? TIA. -Otter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
