This is what I guess, yes. And this is where help would be appreciated ! > OpenBSD developers have (access to) a lot of gear, but not everything > under the sun.

The current one, that is around 100% off, I also can; but it won't run mp for obvious reasons. It is already in production. And with the advice on selecting hardware; it is not always me, firstly, to decide. Secondly, I 'slept' when I got the first box and saw those ugly tens of thousands of seconds ntpd wanted to correct. I mistakenly assumed a problem on the BIOS side, because we sit at UTC+8:00 and I thought it wanted to sync to the BIOS. Me stupid. I wonder if one day we shall end up on Linux here ? As I had mentioned in that earlier thread, Knoppix runs the 2 cores perfectly well. I'd rather not, Uwe
