Sorry to reply to myself, but I wanted to expand this to -stable and add some more info... See the original post at the bottom of this msg. I just took the Smart 2/P and put it in slot1 (one of the shared Eisa/PCI slots.) Now the Dmesg output shows the "SMP: AP CPU" lines in a different order... They were: SMP: AP CPU# 3 Launched! SMP: AP CPU# 1 Launched! SMP: AP CPU# 2 Launched! now they are: SMP: AP CPU# 1 Launched! SMP: AP CPU# 2 Launched! SMP: AP CPU# 3 Launched! I don't think this is a SMP problem, but rather a SMP/Smart2 combined problem... Has anyone got FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE working on a Compaq Proliant 6500 with a Smart2/p? -D ----- Original Message ----- From: "Danny Carroll" <fbsd@dannysplace.net> To: <freebsd-smp@freebsd.org> Sent: Monday, May 12, 2003 6:29 PM Subject: Proliant on a 6500 > Hiya all... > > I have a compaq proliant 6500 with 4 cpu's > I am trying to install 4.8 on it (I got it installed but it's SMP that does > not work). > > The kernel seems to hang after the SMP: AP CPU #3 Launched. > Actually it gets two lines extra (mounting root off the ida controller). > > Now, scrolllock and caps and everything still work, (I can even sroll back > and read the text) but nothing else happens. > > I am about to wipe and choose UNIXWare 7 (I chose solaris last time) and > we'll see what happens, but I was wondering if you have seen this problem > before. > > One more thing...
