Have a look at www.freebsd.org - i.e. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook231.html#492 You might also want to subscribe to the 'current' and 'smp' mailing lists for a bit and see what's going on... The SMP support works on most hardware - but if your on the right lists you'll be able to check this with people... ;-) Regards, Karl Pielorz El Diablo wrote: > > does FreeBSD support SMP well?
