Hi,
We have an ASUS dual 266PII board (P2B-D) system with an ASUS 
branded CD and IDE hard drive. the 4.0 install CD croaks on it - you
never 
get a color menu and, when it does reboot, it dies on a panic
"IRQ = nil"

The 3.2 Install disk works fine...(except adding
SMP* to the kernel after the install made it very unhappy), 
the 4.0 install disk worked fine on a dual300 Dell 410 and the
4.0 SMP kernel installed and ran without any problem.

All suggestions appreciated.

BTW  - we've several FreeBSD systems and like them.

kind regards,
hurf sheldon
