Even if you can't get what you want to work under FreeBSD/amd64, you can still get the AMD64 machine and run FreeBSD/x86 on it just like any other box. Eventually you could move up to FreeBSD/amd64 when everything you want works there. I was running my dual-Opteron under FreeBSD/x86 4.10 for a while (mostly out of laziness because that was what was already on my hard drive from my previous system) and just recently installed FreeBSD/amd64 5.3, but I don't have the same requirements you listed so I can't comment on wether any of that works under amd64 yet. -- Chris Dillon - cdillon(at)wolves.k12.mo.us FreeBSD: The fastest, most open, and most stable OS on the planet - Available for IA32, IA64, AMD64, PC98, Alpha, and UltraSPARC architectures - PowerPC, ARM, MIPS, and S/390 under development - http://www.freebsd.org Q: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation.
