I'm testing an older 486DX4-100 computer with FreeBSD. I've run85 cycles of memtest-86 on it with no problem, but FreeBSD dies when starting up (after npx probe). The system has a PVI-486SP3 motherboard, Award BIOS, 3 PCI slots, SiS 85C496 and 85X497 chipset and Intel DX4 A80486DX4100 SK051. The CPU has a "TOUCH H9512" (CPU made before Dec. 1995) sticker on it. Any ideas? The BIOS will let me choose write-thru or write-back for the caches but no disable. I've tried both options. Jonas
