I am now, and I've gotten past the boot problems. However, I'm now seeing weird data corruption in RAM, spurious SIGBUS or SIGSEGV's, etc... I've replaced the RAM and CPUs and am still seeing it. I'm going to try a new ram vendor, as well as swapping motherboards next. Has anyone else experienced this on a similar system? I know the i840 is highly picky when it comes to SDRAM.... -- Kevin To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-smp" in the body of the message
