When I've 20GB of RAM or more enabled, the Sym53c8xxx v1 driver crases on boot. The v2 driver won't even compile. Luckily, the SCSI drives are all on a qla1280 controller, so I can simply leave the Symbios support out, but still this is a problem. Without the Symbios driver, I can run it with all 16 procs and 32GB ram. ObPlug: Our 16-way is available to all and sundry, and I'm currently bringing up a couple of 4-way Lions as well. A couple 2-ways are in the pipeline.
