It booted with the memory that it was supposed to work with, and then booted the smp kernel. At this point the bios was configured entirely stock. The machine booted, and ran, with no problems. Hyperthreading was enabled in the bios, but disabled in the kernel (no options HTT). The machine shows, and uses, 4 CPUs. dmesg has AP CPU #1,2,3 Launched! messages. I've got an mptable report at the bottom of this email. I ran 4xburnP6 for a while and everything seemed stable. I rebooted, disabled HT in the bios, and attempted to boot again. This time around we were back to the old failure: Waiting 15 seconds for SCSI devices to settle >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dump Card State Begins <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ahd0: Dumping Card State at program address 0x10f Mode 0x33 Card was paused ...etc etc. Now, I never tried /enabling/ hyperthreading in the bios on the old board. Perhaps there is a problem with this? Help? Since my application doesn't involve anything that will correctly utilize hyperthreading, I'd prefer to keep it disabled. thanks. =============================================================================== MPTable, version 2.0.15 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MP Floating Pointer Structure: location: BIOS physical address: 0x000f6800 signature: '_MP_' length: 16 bytes version: 1.4 checksum: 0xfe mode: Virtual Wire ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MP Config Table Header: physical address: 0x0009f9a0 signature: 'PCMP' base table length: 428 version: 1.4 checksum: 0x1d OEM ID: ' ' Product ID: 'Kings Canyon' OEM table pointer: 0x00000000 OEM table size: 0 entry count: 42 local APIC address: 0xfee00000 extended table length: 0 extended table checksum: 0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MP Config Base Table Entries: -- Processors: APIC ID Version State Family Model Step Flags 0 0x14 BSP, usable 15 2 5 0xbfebfbff 6 0x14 AP, usable 15 2 5 0xbfebfbff 1 0x14 AP, usable 15 2 5 0xbfebfbff 7 0x14 AP, usable 15 2 5 0xbfebfbff -- Bus: Bus ID Type 0 PCI 1 PCI 2 PCI 3 PCI 4 PCI 5 PCI 6 PCI 7 PCI 8 ISA -- I/O APICs: APIC ID Version State Address 2 0x20 usable 0xfec00000 3 0x20 usable 0xfec80000 4 0x20 usable 0xfec80400 5 0x20 usable 0xfec81000 8 0x20 usable 0xfec81400 -- I/O Ints: Type Polarity Trigger Bus ID IRQ APIC ID PIN# ExtINT active-hi edge 8 0 2 0 INT active-hi edge 8 1 2 1 INT active-hi edge 8 0 2 2 INT active-hi edge 8 3 2 3 INT active-hi edge 8 4 2 4 INT active-hi edge 8 5 2 5 INT active-hi edge 8 6 2 6 INT active-hi edge 8 7 2 7 INT active-hi edge 8 8 2 8 INT active-hi edge 8 9 2 9 INT active-lo level 0 29:B 2 19 INT active-lo level 0 29:A 2 16 INT active-hi edge 8 12 2 12 INT active-hi edge 8 13 2 13 INT active-hi edge 8 14 2 14 INT active-hi edge 8 15 2 15 INT active-lo level 0 29:C 2 18 INT active-lo level 3 2:A 3 4 INT active-lo level 3 2:B 3 5 INT active-lo level 6 2:A 5 4 INT active-lo level 6 2:B 5 5 INT active-lo level 7 1:A 2 16 -- Local Ints: Type Polarity Trigger Bus ID IRQ APIC ID PIN# ExtINT active-hi edge 8 0 255 0 NMI active-hi edge 8 0 255 1 =============================================================================== --- david raistrick drais@atlasta.net http://www.expita.com/nomime.html
