I have the same problems (running on non-SMP works), but I kept quiet because I cannot rule out hardware failure, yet. Memory is okay, but even W2k crashes when (presumably) starting the 2nd CPU. BSD will wreak havoc to the filesystem under even minor load, throwing diverse signals to "make world", e.g. 6,10,11 before crashing in fs code entirely, even resulting in soft-update inconsistencies :-/ IIRC I tried both DMA & PIO mode and two different controllers, I'm currently planning to give the CPUs two a Linux-friend with the same board (Gigabyte 6BXD). Number crunching will *not* cause errors, though... -- Wonderful \hbox (0.80312pt too nice) in paragraph at lines 16--18 Volker Stolz * stolz@i2.informatik.rwth-aachen.de Please use PGP or S/MIME for correspondence!
