Anyway At least on every dual processor SuperMicro board i've tested, if you have Adaptec bios 1.24, the SMP kernel will hang (well, after a while the adaptec times out, the kernel panics, etc) 1.25 works fine. Someone who is working on either the aic or smp code should look at this. either test for bios ver 1.24 and not allow it, or something of the sort. Adaptec, in true Adaptec fashion, won't answer my question about why this is happening. --DAn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
