slow clock on FreeBSD 7.2 on vmware

2009-12-12 Thread Robert Fitzpatrick
I found posts about this and a possible solution is to disable APIC by adding hint.apic.0.disabled=1 to /boot/loader.conf. But after doing so, it booted to the mountroot prompt and would not recognize my ufs:/dev/da0s1a partition when tried. I went to FixIt and removed the line from the loader.

ally pretty awesome ... on the other hand, I can't argue with the person who doesn't want to roll those dice. And compile times of current generation hardware are pretty short. On an AMD Phenom II x4 940 (3 ghz) it's 5 minutes, maybe less.
