Greetings,

I have ordered a Tyan S2882UG3NR Motherboard, processors, and 4Gig of RAM for 
development.  After ordering (I know I should have checked first) I saw one 
person that had problems with the onboard SCSI controllor.  I could not find 
where or if this problem was resolved.  Since this is supposed to be a Tier 1 
controller I am hoping that it has been...

So my questions are:
Has this problem been fixed, and if so is it in 5.2.1
If it has been fixed but not in the 5.2.1 release, how can I get it installed.

As a side note: Much of what our developers will be working on is a highly 
threaded application. I want to make sure that if we run into any SMP 
threading issues that I get enough information to you guys.  Any pointers 
beyond the normal debug kernel and large enough swap space for kernel dumps 
would be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
/Jeff
