It has dual zeons w/HT. I tried at the time to install freebsd 5.3 and 5.4 on it but it would have a fatal error with both randomly while running. I posted here and of the very few responses to fix my problem, someone said turn off HT which did not solve the problem. It's not any of the hardware because I loaded debian and it ran fine but I want freebsd on it. I would think the lastest version 5.4 would work with new new hardware but I'm thinking not and its really disappointing. Any suggestions for SMP with new new hardware, 4.11 perhaps? -- Jason
