It's 'functional': - 5.3-R and 5.4-STABLE (as of today) boot fine, with ACPI - I'm not using the SCSI - Booting into single-user mode, for some reason, does not work in 5.4 - The machine will not accept input for shell specification, but hitting ctrl+alt+del will successfully reboot the machine - Booting into single-user mode seems to work fine in 5.3-R - only currently using one CPU - ports/nvnet does *not* detect the nVidia GBE adapters - I've had some CD issues that I haven't tracked down - ACPI is *required* (and luckily it works) to enumerate the PCI bus, as well as use DMA mode on the SATA controller (amongst other things, I'm sure) - Changing the installed OS type in the BIOS from 'Linux' to 'Other' seemingly has no effect (and vice-versa). >How-To-Repeat: Find a Tyan K8WE. Install FreeBSD. Play. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
