To start on this I took enough from: = http://ftp1.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/snapshots/powerpc/powerpc64/11.2-STABL= E/ to see if it would get past the SMP: messages that head is not reaching. It produced the SMP messages just fine and kept going past that point. So I tried: http://ftp1.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/powerpc/11.2-RELEASE/ and it did the same. 11.2-Release does not fail during the same activity as head (if it fails at all). So I'm not exploring the artifact.ci.freebsd.org stable-11 material that I listed. I may explore head via: = https://artifact.ci.freebsd.org/snapshot/head/r*/powerpc/powerpc64/kernel.= txz =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)
