Hello freebsd-alpha,
I recently got a DEC 164LX mainboard with a 533 CPU and 265 MB Ram.
The board came with the AlphaBIOS so I installed the latest SRM firmware.
When booting FreeBSD (4.7-STABLE, cvsupped 30. Nov. 2002 0:00 GMT) I see
these stange "*** no timer interrupts on CPU 0 ***" messages. Since Freebsd
runs fine, besides of the X11 Problems I need to evaluate a litte more
(unpected machine check on XServer start), I wonder if this message indicates
something bad and how it can be avoided.
This is the output of my systems configuration:
