FreeBSD support in SMP platform

[twi...@yahoo.com.tw]

Dear ALL

I am james wang working at IBM taiwan. Recently, I tried to install

FreeBSD V5.2 in IBMx455 ( Xeon CPU, 8 Way ), system.

One way ( One CPU ) works well but system complaint to us when

I installed 8 Ways CPU in system.

Dose any one advise me ? What kind of driver ( SMP ) should I install ?

Or, any other comments ?

Hyperthreading must be disabled because FreeBSD supports only 8 CPUs as
I know.

I run it with only two CPUs without any problems.
