I gave it another try and tried out a number of different types of OSs in the Compaq configuration. Some worked = better than others (Linux, Windows 2000 and a few others worked well) others such as MSDOS=20 locked up during the SMP initialization. I even went and reassigned some IRQs by hand. Still no go. Those cards are invisible. I am about to give up and = install some flavor of Linux. For my particular purpose, any Unix variant is okay, so it's no biggie. However I'd have liked to have a freebsd-only setup for this particular project (this is one of three servers, and the others -- Proliant DL360 = G2 boxes -- run fbsd 4.8 without problems, and with the same Intel NIC.) Just for curiosity's sake, here's my dmesg. If anyone sees something suspicious, please let me know. Yes, there is a problem with the SMP handling, but = if that was the cuplrity, the cards should be seen in uniproc mode... (?).. = There is also something wrong with the cdr, but that could be a dying drive. Copyright (c) 1992-2003 The FreeBSD Project.
