If someone could give me an overview of how new-bus works, I would appreciate it. Now to the problem: I have a Compaq 3000 which I'm trying to get working. Under -STABLE, it detects 4 PCI buses, and probes the devices on the buses correctly. Under -current, it only detects 2 PCI buses. Unfortunatly, my boot device is on one of the non- detected buses, making debugging slightly difficult. FWIW, I can't get SMP working on this machine either, since only two PCI buses are listed in the MP table; and I can't see any "set Full MPTable" in Compaq's blasted Ctrl-A config utility. 1. Why does -stable work and not -current? 2. Does new-bus require an MP table (or equivalent) to detect the buses? -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
