  Well, the machine seem to run fine the way it is.  But only the first PCI
slot is usable.  That's OK for right now, but I have a RAID controller
ordered.  So I'll need at least two of them working.  Does anyone know why
it can detect cards in other slots but then timeout when trying to
communicate with them?  
  Here is my mptable (in full) :

	HRrrmmmm... that brings up an interesting question. I have an SMP
box on
which I ran mptable, and got the following at the end:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

# SMP kernel config file options:

# Required:
options         SMP                     # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
options         APIC_IO                 # Symmetric (APIC) I/O

#options                NINTR=24                # number of INTs
============================================================================
===

	The only thing different in that list from the commented out
defaults in
GENERIC is NBUS. Do I gain anything by explicitly setting NBUS=2 in my
kernel config, as opposed to just allowing it to use the default 4? I would
think that if I had more busses than 4 that this would be significant, but
I'm always interested in learning new things. :)

	BTW, took a look at the -dmesg option and it seems to me that it
would be
better to use /var/run/dmesg.boot since just using 'system( "dmesg" );' can
include lots of non-boot related info, and might not actually include the
boot info if there have been a lot of kernel messages. I can do a patch if
anyone is interested....

Thanks,

Doug
