Again, for the curious and those searching the archives (believe
me, I wish this was available when I was setting it up): SMP is now
working without a hitch. All I did was compile with the default SMP
kernel configuration file. All of the other changes had to be made
to get it to boot at all. I'd love to see APM working, but have yet
to make that happen. Same with WOL.
Good grief! I started searching the web for information on this beast,
never realising I had the thread sitting in my inbox :)
I inherited a 6-way HP Netserver LT 6000r and I've been getting it to
run 5.4-STABLE. If I let it boot by itself it hangs on the first of the
following two lines (the second is never displayed)
amrd0: 52095MB (106690560 sectors) RAID 5 (optimal)
ses0 at amr0 bus 0 target 5 lun 0
(full dmegs output is at the end of this message).
Again, some serious kudos to the developers that make this happen!
Ditto.

In case anyone was burning with anticipation, I did get this up and

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 :)
I compiled with SMP, and according to the dmesg output below I am
humming along on 6 cylinders, so to speak. In any event a make -j12
buildworld seems to zip along and the disk doesn't seem overly solicited
(but that could simply be giant contention, I don't know what the
current state of that is).
I could post my kernel config file if there is interest. I have stripped
out a lot of unnecessary stuff (// port, USB support, and other devices
I'm not interested in).

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

The only posts I could readily find were failures several years ago,
so I hope the situation has improved :)
