6 months purchased a dual processor Gigabyte motherboard and a PIII 500 MHz processor which was running FreeBSD 3.4. The system has 512 MB RAM and 2 18 GB Ultra2 SCSI hard drives. Everything was working great for months until I added the second 500 MHz processor, recompiled the kernel for SMP support and two processors, and restarted the system. Now, it seems like once a day, the systems locks up for no apparent reason. Everything, including the keyboard and firewall and networking all stop working. I've ran the same hardware with Linux and no lock up problems whatsoever. Is there some setting that I'm overlooking in the kernel or is this some type of known (or unknown) problem with FreeBSD and SMP support? I'd getting really desperate as I'd rather run FreeBSD any day over Linux. Any suggestions or hints would certainly be appreciated.
