I wanted some input regarding Pentium Pro machines.
Has anyone had any problems with the hardware and/or using it with
FreeBSD?

Are there any problems with the PP chipset(is the latest Orion II or something?)
I remember hearing about PCI problems with the chipset.  Someone
told me they still have problems in orion II.  Is this true?

What motherboards for Pentium Pro are good and reliable?

What about multiprocessor support?  Does anyone have FreeBSD hacks to
support multiple processors?  How well is it working?

Thank you,

Steven Wallace
