In case anyone was burning with anticipation, I did get this up and
running. You must turn off the interrupt reservation in the "PCI Device
Settings" in the BIOS, it also helps to upgrade the BIOS to 4.06.45.
For the install to recognise the SCSI devices (I did this with the
NetRAID turned OFF), you'll need to start the install with ACPI
disabled. I don't know about after the install, since I just left it
off. By the way, this was far easier with FreeBSD than it was with
NetBSD, Linux, or Solaris 9 (I finally decided on FreeBSD, since it's
my Operating System of choice anyway), so some serious kudos to the
developers! I don't have SMP working yet, but I will try that next. It
/would/ be nice to be able to compile the SMP kernel with SMP enabled,
though :)

Has anyone had any luck getting an HP Netserver LT 6000r to run on
FreeBSD, with SMP working? I am looking at buying a quad 700MHZ of
this model and want to make sure it will run my primary operating
system.
The only posts I could readily find were failures several years ago,
so I hope the situation has improved :)
