Hey, I got a Compaq Proliant 800 dual pentium pro (200mhz) box recently. A couple of days ago I installed FreeBSD 4.2 on it, re-compiling the kernel for my ISDN card *and* smp support. SMP seemed to work fine, and so did ISDN after some tinkering ... Today, I nuked the disk partitions and installed Windows to test ISDN (had some problems with the card that are resolved now). The ISDN card is now in another machine. Now, I just formatted the disks and installed FreeBSD. I re-compiled the kernel for smp support without any problems - however, on boot it simply hangs: -- Changing APIC ID for IO APIC #0 from 0 to 2 on chip Programming 24 pins in IOAPIC #0 IOAPIC #0 intpin 2 -> irq 0 -- I visited #freebsd on UnderNet and somebody pointed me towards this --> http://potter.ieee.uh.edu/compaq.html So ... I booted from the Compaq Smartstart CD (v4.70), and had a look around in the hardware configuration for APIC settings ... but guess what, I didn't see anything to do with "APIC" settings. :( I'd very much appreciate some help here ...
