What's that I hear you say? Who could possibly need pccard support and SMP together? There are no SMP laptops, right? Well don't forget: the ISA version of the WaveLAN/IEEE card is really a PCMCIA bridge adapter whith a PCMCIA card plugged into it. Trying to boot an SMP kernel on the Dell PowerEdge 2300/400 with the pccard support turned on causes a nice nasty panic as soon as the bridge adapter is probed. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to fix this. -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
