Now for the guesswork: Very interesting - unfortunately you dont get this sort of fine-grained control on the Compaq so I cant try it here. All I can od is tell the machine what Opersating System it is running. On the advice of a very helpful list member in the Netherlands I have it set to an SMP variety of Novell netware - which configures the macghine in such a way that SMP will run. The other operating system types dont even let it boot SMP :-( > If you encounter similar problems, could you please check if your > configuration fits this pattern?

Thoough I have to say that this is frommy latest SMP kernel which I havent run before and thus dont know if it exhibits the same proeblems as the older one did. As this is productionmachine it is run simgle processor at the moment due to the instability problems. -pcf.
