Let's put it this way, I've posted a NUMBER of items to the -stable list over the last 2-4 weeks as I've fought this one. I can't get a CPU/BIOS/MB with a K6-2/550 on it to SUCCESSFULLY/RELIABLY make world.
Well, it's certainly a hardware problem of some sort since we have literally dozens of K6-2 systems here - we built a cluster of them for package building and have a bunch of them also serving in various FreeBSD desktop roles. They all work flawlessly, from FreeBSD 3.x all the way up to 5.0-current. Where the hardware problem is with your system is, of course, almost impossible to diagnose remotely but rest assured that it is NOT a software issue. I'm also not saying that you implied such was the case, I just wanted to state such publically and for the record.
I understand that, Jordan. I was hoping to get it fixed, but couldn't get the combo's THAT I HAD AVAILABLE to work.
I wasn't implying that it was a S/W problem, just an interaction of hardware. I would have loved to get it working, BUT, ran out of patience.
the system now has a P-III 600E in it, and runs flawlessly (little slower on SETI units, but...).
