OK . I'll build a non-SMP kernel for 5.0-CURRENT. I'm still thinking it pukes on the pci-probe, I read somewhere, maybe netbsd that the 2100a handles the pci probe differentl. But it still boots the FBSD 4.6.2 non-smp kernel just fine. > Nobody has ever run an SMP kernel on a 2100A, AFAIK.

I'll build a non-SMP kernel tommorrow and send the results Thanks Tom > > Drew > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
