Have done a couple of kernel makes and some other minor work. Everything seems to work fine with on our 4 CPU HP Netserver 5/133 LS4 About time to remove /** FIXME: remove this when NCPU > 2 is tested */ if ( mp_naps > 1 ) { printf( "\nWarning: current SMP kernel only tested with 2 CPUs.\n" ); printf( "Please report the results to: \n" ); printf( " to continue...\n" ); cngetc(); } from mp_machdep.c? It's been running on 4 CPU's now since december, and I've only had two crashes since then. It's not heavily loaded, but when it once in a while is loaded, it quite loaded chewing data that needs 50-100MB of memory and sometimes causing heavy paging as well (got 128MB on it). It's been amazingly stable so far. Terje Marthinussen terjem@cc.uit.no
