The following reply was made to PR kern/32478; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Nate Lawson <nate@root.org> To: Greg Whynott - A|W SGI <gwhynott@aw.sgi.com> Cc: Nate Lawson <njl@FreeBSD.org>, freebsd-bugs@FreeBSD.org, freebsd-gnats-submit@freebsd.org Subject: Re: kern/32478: scsi/NIC drivers fail when using SMP kernel Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2002 15:30:10 -0700 (PDT) 4.6.2 made no changes to the drivers, it was only a security release. The issue most likely is not with your ethernet cards but with our handling of shared interrupts. This is only a guess since without a dmesg or other output, there's no way to be sure. We hope you'll be interested in trying FreeBSD in the future. -Nate On Fri, 16 Aug 2002, Greg Whynott - A|W SGI wrote: > Hello Nate, > > The last RELEASE I attempted was 4.6 on the same piece of equipment > and a Dell 610 dual xeon machine using similar ethernet cards.
