Wai Chan,

	Thanks for the info.  I've redone the entire installation, compiled
the kernel, got all of the memory and both processors running.  I
sincerely appreciate the help.

	But, I have run into another small problem.  Occasionally, on boot,
it will give me the following:

ida0: <Compaq SMART2/P array controller> port 0x8000-0x80ff mem
0x42000000-0x43ffffff, 0x40000000-0x400000ff irq 11 at device 0.0 on
pci1
panic: ida_wait: timeout waiting for completion
mp_lock = 00000001; cpuid = 0; lapic.id=00000000
Uptime: 0s
Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort

	When we did the previous installation, the friend of mine that set it
up put in a larger pause delay earlier in the booting process.  He
told me that he set it up to load and unload the kernel four times,
which would give the drives a chance to settle so that the controller
could be queried properly.

	Any ideas on remedying this problem?

	Thanks,

--- Andy
