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.

I'm tired of fighting it.

It's got to be flaky hardware somewhwere, Larry. I'm running an AMD K6-2/500 here on a Soyo Super 7 motherboard with a single 128M stick of SDRAM. I just finished a make world today (1hr 20m total time) and it never gave me so much as a hiccup. I usually make world once a week around this time and it has never failed on this configuration.

Fine. I suspect something in the Shuttle board/Bios Combo, then.

As I said, I couldn't get 2 different Shuttle Boards, and a couple of instances of each, to make it work.

I just didn't have the time to devote to finding a solution that WORKED.

I *DID* post, and HOPED for a response like this one over the last month or so. Today is the first dialog I've had off the list with answers.

Unfortunately, that's the way things work here. You would probably have been better off with the FreeBSD-questions list; the topic has nothing to do with -STABLE, and there are fewer subscribers. Also, note that people don't always have time to read the lists. I've just got back from 3 weeks of travel, for example.

I thought (since this all worked on the old P-90 board), that -STABLE MIGHT have been broken, so this is where I posted.

I understand about people and time, but don't accuse me of not TRYING to get help.
