Seems to be rock solid. >Dave We run 2 AMD 5x86/133's, one performing as a pretty heavy Mail hub (does just over 250M inbound and 115M outbound every 48hrs) which, if you saw my other message is doing very weird things at the moment. However, previous to that, it performed flawlessly. It is compiled as both CPU options I486 and I586, being a production machine, I am reluctant to see if it works as I586 alone. The other one was formally a backup host, and again, apart from a power supply problem, has performed flawlessly. Its now been 'retired' and becoming my psuedo workstation (somehow though, I feel it will do more work now than it did as a server =)), so I will can playing with the kernel without fear! =) They boot damn quick too! faster than my P133 with 128M RAM that runs as one of the web servers.
