Do not say me, that's bullshit, I know :-/ Some of these boxes works under 4.5-RELEASE, some under Windows 2000. Sometime it should be upgraded on to 6.x branch, but I cannot use it - when I install 6.x on these boxes, I cannot bring up any network interface - link leds on card brights, but no any traffic can pass, even on neighbour box! I see xl0: watchdog timeout xl0: watchdog timeout ... messages on console. Later. When connect HDD to motherboard through ordinary (40-wired) cable, 6.x says, that HDD is broken! I see endless messages DMA_ERROR..., CRC_ERROR... etc When I change cable to UDMA (80-wired) - all these messages are disapper Later. When I boot box with "ACPI disabled" network cards works! But box hangs up after about 5-10 minutes of active work. Cooler does not stop but box hangs completely, only reset works. -- With Best Regards. Rashid N.
