You may be a little dissappointed when the machine does not > boot up ;) Uh, I was more talking of performance issues. I've just rebuilt most of our boxes with 4.8-STABLE. As I wanted to only do the make buildworld and make buildkernel on one machine and export that, I used SMP options in the kernel. All of the machines booted fine. About half of them are uniprocessor. I was just wondering if I am liable to see any performance issues as a result of this. Thanks, -- Wayne Pascoe
