Hi, > First - the installation manual in http://www.freebsd.org/~fsmp/SMP/SMP.html > is okay. The only thing i wonder is the second passage about the latest > snapshot.

I believe what is happening here is that the assembler has been upgraded, and the one you are currently using doesn't know adout this instruction. I hit the same problem last nite. cvsuping with standard-supfile.cvsup, followed by a "make world" fixed it. Now I'm chasing down some problem with syscons.c referencing a fistload of undefined functions. > I really do not know what to do ... it was the first time i cvssupped - so > maybe it's this ? Or is it an inlcude-file problem ? I think you need to get you entire system up to -current and "make world". thanx for the report, -- Steve Passe | powered by smp@csn.net | FreeBSD
