Hi Here is the system: Compaq Proliant 5500 Quad Xeon 500Mhz Booting from Compaq Smart Raid configured to give 3 virtual drives JBOD on seperate adaptec SCSI 2 PCI card Fibre Channel Array 1.2T Adaptec AHA 6944A/TX 4 port PCI 10/100 NVidia PCI TNT2 M64 32M Video card - working fine after a struggle - configured as vesa vesa! Built in ATI Rage IIc (DISABLED) on standard peripheral interface FreeBSD 4.7 My first attempt at configuring this system for SMP was a total failure!! I lost my original configuration as I was unable to re-start successfully with kernel.old. I have successfully rebuilt the configuration as single processor and am ready to have another go to build as SMP. Before doing so some handholding advice would be very welcome. I have not been able to find guidance for building an SMP kernel but I have no doubt not been looking in the right place!! I have looked at the LINT file & commented out: cpu I386_CPU cpu I486_CPU and then added the lines options SMP options APIC_IO is there anything else I need to do prior to making the kernel? Also if there is someone with a similar system who could send me a copy of a successful kernel conf file I would be most grateful Thanks David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
