I've been running four of the P2BLS + PII 350's for about five months without any problems. If you're running the older 2.2-stable + CAM the AHC7890 PCI bus parity chipset bug workaround from -current will need to be applied. The diff is only a few lines. > ASUS P2B-S w/Adaptec AIC 7890 & 3860 80MB/s UtraWide SCSI Controller > Intel Celeron 400 Mhz 66Mhz/128K > 128 MB SDRAM PC100, 16x64 I'd recommend using ECC memory and enabling it in the BIOS. -- mark To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
