Got a question (or two). What is the recommended set of flags to use for
an AMD K6-III on 3.2-RELEASE?
I noticed:
options CPU_WT_ALLOC
in LINT. Would I be wise to enable it (i.e. is it stable)?
How about NO_MEMORY_HOLE?
Also, do I need to do anything to enable Write Combining? I believe my
BIOS enables it by default, but I'm not sure if that carries over across
FreeBSD boot.
How about MTRRs (no "MTRR" in my Features line). Anything I need to/can do
to set those up?
Thanks,
Randall
