Sender: owner-smp@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I may have a Compaq Proliant 5000 with 4 P6-166 CPUs for a little while. I'd like to see if the smp code will run on one of these beasts. I've been lurking on this list for a while and haven't seen any mention of compaq. Would folks know: a) What kind of chipsets these things have? b) What the SCSI controller is? (I'll try and poke around inside the case, but a cursory glance tells me that I need about two dozen different tools just to get at the motherboard :-) c) Any chance at all for the smp code to run? Compaq's web site is woefully lacking on any of these details. Any suggestions gratefully accepted. Thanks. ^mi
