Subject:   stable + smp problem

Up until recently my HP Vectra with 2 pentium pro 180 processors
ran freebsd 4.1-stable succesfully with a SMP kernel with no
weird tweaking involved.  I commented in the 2 SMP lines in the
generic kernel config, compiled, rebooted, and it worked fine.

A few days ago I cvsuped to freebsd 4.2-stable and SMP refuses to work

after attempting to boot with a 4.2 stable SMP kernel, the machine
locks up very early in the boot process here:



 Changing APIC ID for IO APIC # from 16 to 2 in MP table
 Programming 16 pins in IOAPIC #0
 IOAPIC # intpn 2 -> irq 0


now I am successfully running a non SMP freebsd 4.2-stable kernel,
but I kind of miss my 2nd processor.  

any ideas why this would happen?

thanks.
