What a chore! Thought I had both cpu's working
properly on the HP Netserver, only to find out
tonight the 2nd one wasn't. Turned out to be a
controller seating problem on the mobo. Got
that ironed out now, I hope.
Installed FreeBSD 5.4 Release on it, installed
some ports I needed, rebuilt the kernel for
SMP support, and it's working okay so far. Now
I'm installing Xorg and later Fluxbox for the
desktop. I'm sure there are some things I left
out, like certain compile arguments, but it's
just for experimentation right now, anyway.
Also added an extra 9GB h/d for storage and
backup. Ran sysinstall and used fdisk and
disklabel. That went okay, too. Hope the xorg
and fluxbox install goes as well.
