Hello, Stable!
Do anyone have running RELENG_6 branch on old Intel SMP boards? I have two
of them: SCB2 and SDS2. Both are on RELENG_4_11 today. Thinking on proposed
EoL of RELENG_4 branch I'v tryed to move one of them (SCB2) onto 6.1-RELEASE.
That was very problematic - ethernet performance droped down to about 90
kB/s in installer (Installer was runned from boot floppy).
FWIW both these boards seem very similar to a Supermicro P3TDER that I'm
running 6-STABLE on (however the ethernet adapter is fxp not em), and it
works well (Serverworks HE-SL is a really good chipset). I guess you
could try a different ethernet card - if the boards have enough free PCI
slots for you to do this - they look like they have 1 more than the
P3TDER does (i.e. 1)
Do you have any tips? (Like running with ACPI disabled ond so on).
Works with ACPI enabled - had to use hw.acpi.disable_on_reboot=1 to get
the power button to switch the box off after halt tho.
Cheers
Mark
