Hi Janick, Thanks for the help and pointers from before. I wonder if you might the time to spare for a question of mine. I'm trying to do some preparatory reading whilst the system components are coming in, and found that the handbook I've got (from The Complete FreeBSD) doesn't directly address setting up the kernel for SMP. I tried looking at the archives mailing lists (maybe using the wrong search paras?), but haven't found any documentation that addresses this directly. Do you know of any archives or the like, that might help? Thanks again.
