I'm run FreeBSD 6.0-RELEASE hint.acpi.0.disabled="1" in
/boot/device.hints
and
options SMP
options IPI_PREEMPTION
device mptable
and
device atpic commented out in custom kernel
The hardware is single 3.0GHz CPU and 4GB RAM.
The question I have. Does Intel CPU have HTT in amd64 mode?
Sincerely, Maxim M. Kazachek
