Re: ga-586dx on linux 2.4

[Markus Schorer <ms@plain.de>]

hi,

i have that same board (only with 2 166 no-MMX).
i have had several issues with smp and noapic. as far as i remember,
my last setup was quite stable. although i didn't use it as server.

one problem i remember, usb and adaptec are on the same irq, the apic
tries to "separate" wich never worked. so i had to hardcode the
usb-interrupt.

i would be interested in any solution you might find.

bye,
