Wow - no comments at all on this. Anywhere - I've asked in a couple of
places. Does anyone know of any SMP issues with 2.2.17 at all ?

Subject: Scyld Beowulf doesn't like Gigabyte GA-6vxdr7 motherboard
Hi All -
Just got some eval equipment in today to play with, with the Gigabyte
GA-6vxdr7 motherboards in them. The NICs show up as EtherExpressPro 10/100
nics, pretty normal. These are dual P3 boards with dual 933 cpus and 512meg
memory.
The stage 1 boot goes fine, it gets an IP and grabs the stage 2 kernel fine.
It's during the boot and init of the dual cpus that it barfs ... It leaves
this on screen :
:
:
CPU map: 3
Booting processor 1 eip 2000
Setting warm reset code and vector
1.
2.
3.
Asserting INIT.
Deasserting INIT.
Sending STARTUP #1.
After apic_write.
Before start apic_write.
Startup point 1.
And there it sits.
There's some more above the CPU map: 3 there, I can provide that as well. I
have to run right now, but tomorrow I'll try the non-SMP kernel, see if it
will actually boot.
Otherwise, any ideas ?
