Is there I cannot speak of ECC memory or of SMP (yet!!!) but I own a P2B-DS and it works wonderfully with 3.2-STABLE. I highly recommend it. Make sure to download BIOS 1009 and FLASH that sucker first before installing (if you are installing from before 3.2-RELEASE code ... dunno how you planned on installing). > tweaks you can perform to the kernel?

I had some probe lockups early in 3.0 and 3.1 when I first got the board but since there have been fixes and more importantly fixes in the Adaptec BIOS (contained in the MB bios 1009) I've had zero problems. -Jr -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= | John Reynolds CEG, CCE, Next Generation Flows, HLA | | Intel Corporation MS: CH6-210 Phone: 480-554-9092 pgr: 868-6512 | | jreynold@sedona.ch.intel.com http://www-aec.ch.intel.com/~jreynold/ | =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
