To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Wed, 22 Nov 1995 10:10:52 +0000 () X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24] Content-Type: text Content-Length: 916 Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk How do, I'm about (hopefully) to expand the provision of FreeBSD boxes here. In the process I'm going to upgrade to 2.1. However, despite finding FreeBSD to be a superb platform, I have always been dogged by hardware problems of some form or another, normally manifesting themselves as cache problems. My current machine, for example, falls over roughly once a day because of cache problems. Can anyone on these lists recommend a Pentium motherboard, SCSI bus, video system triple that's going to work with FreeBSD 2.1 out of the box, without needing excess fiddling with the BIOS, caches and so forth? Even better would be a manufacturer and model number.
