A related question, I currently have a 3.1-STABLE box with a Ye32 (ISA) [acting as a pager notification and serial console multiplexor for several dozen Sun/etc. boxes], and am nearing the time when I'll need to expand above the 32 ports. Is it possible to, and are there any problems I should know about, putting another Ye32 (ISA) in the same box? Anyone done such a thing? From the comments above and others I've seen, should I stick with the ISA variant rather than trying to add one of the PCI cards? -philip -- AKA: Philip Kizer Texas A&M CIS Operating Systems Group, Unix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
