This doesn't bother me too terribly Speaking of PowerEdge, do we support them in SMP under -STABLE ? A friend of mine has tried to run 3.4-R in SMP mode on one of them and it doesn't like it apparently. Sorry if I don't have more info as he's now on vacation... It doesn't like the 2nd APIC in the system AFAIK. Any more idea ? I redirected this to "freebsd-smp" anyway. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 4.0-CURRENT #77: Thu Dec 30 12:49:51 CET 1999 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
