Thanks everyone for all of the suggestions and help. Between Supermicro Support and myself we've decided to RMA the motherboard...it seems to have various issues: Doesn't boot with tested-good recommended memory (Kingston KVR266X72RC25/25) SCSI related crashes with a UP 4.7-R GENERIC kernel ATA related crashes with a SMP 4.7-R kernel when SCSI disabled (jumper J22) SCSI & ATA crashes with SMP 4.8-R kernel, with or without SCSI disks installed. Hopefully a replacement board will clear most of this up. I do know I'll need to tweak the 4.8-R em driver to fix the watchdog timeouts, and I may need to apply Richy's UNSWIZZLE patch down the road. The board is /very/ recent, dated 08/03...it's possible that it's just a bad one. Fingers crossed! ...david (awaiting the advance replacement) --- david raistrick drais@atlasta.net http://www.expita.com/nomime.html
