It works but with peculiar failures (for instance I cannot make buildworld because rpcgen dies a horrible death). I've poked around a bit and done several re-installs without luck. I also have an ASUS based system w/2 Pentiums which runs FBSD SMP fine. Anyhow, I need the Goliath machine for "real work" now so I'm going to install Solaris. No criticism, I think you folks are doing a great job. I only wish I had the time to contribute more. I await the SMP release, whenever that may be. Sincerely, dayton Dayton Clark CIS Department dayton@brooklyn.cuny.edu Brooklyn College/CUNY 1-718-951-4811 Brooklyn, New York 11210 1-718-951-4842 (fax) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
