In newer kernels, I think it is kernel thread. In 2.0.xx, it was a

I didn't say "self-repairing". I said "redundancy and fault
protection".
Circuitry on the board constantly monitors the processors and their
boards. When a failure is detected, that CPU (or its board) is shut down
and some other one (installed as a standby) is turned on to take its
place.
These kinds of things are common in large mission-critical systems.
They are unheard of in systems as small as PCs.
If you're not doing something like launching the Space Shuttle or
controlling an oil refinery, or something similar (where a failure can
result in people getting killed), you probably have no need for this
kind of redundancy.

Of course, I have time for this, since I am going for a 2-CPU board now

Nope. _Because_ Windows is doing OK I'm confident that it's the serial port
isn't set up properly. It's a matter of initializing the 16550A at boot
time. Put something like
${SETSERIAL} -b /dev/ttyS1 irq 3 port 0x2F8 skip_test autoconfig spd_vhi ${STD_F
LAGS}
into your 0setserial and your done (adjust the parameters to your need).
The 'spd_vhi' command does the trick.

Sorry - but of course, it always gets more interesting when pushing the
envelope. Theoretically, the same technology that is used for burning
PROMs can be used to 'burn' a new logic like a PLA in response to a
system failure. I have seen examples of this, but never in 'real life'

Of course, reduncancy is not as difficult to implement as 'self-repair',
but it is only practical for very simple circuitry... it is really
'self-repair' that is interesting. And I believe there is a need for it
- where the cost of developing the additional circuit logic intersect
with the cost of having to replace a faulty circuit. But I have no idea
what kind of system it would apply to ...

Once you start talking about more than two processors, you're now
looking at a different market. These systems are usually beyond the
scope of an office user or a hobbiest - they're typically only sold to
corporate network administrators. (And given the prices, it's not
surprising why.)
4-way and 8-way systems typically ship with Windows NT. I think Linux
will also use all the CPUs. I don't know how well Linux performs
compared to NT on an 8-way system.
You may also want to consider Sun's Solaris/x86 OS. I've seen it in use
on the 8-way Compaq boxes, and it performs very well. Far better than
NT. (I don't know how it compares against Linux, though.)

Compaq makes their own board for this.
Dell uses an Intel-made board, which you should be able to find a vendor for.
I think most other vendors use the Intel board.

Be sure that the kernel is compiled for the right chips. There are some
minor incompatabilities between different circuits, check the source if
necessary. I just remembered this from somewhere, and I don't remember
where - I think there are some switches that can be set in Windows for
some different kinds of hardware. Be sure that the same switches are set
in Linux.
I don't know what would happen if the hardware was asked to use
HW-bufferes that are not there, but the response may well be what you
are experiencing.
If you want to, I can try to find out where it was I saw this, or others
might know by heart ...

First of all, my sympathies. Depending on your level of computer
experience, Disk Druid may be better for you than fdisk (but you
already know that).
Did you low-level format an IDE drive? I don't think that was a
good idea (especially if you can't read from it now). You may
need Norton's or some other disk utility to rescue your drive,
especially if no fdisk program can recognize the drive.
Ask around. I'm certain someone you know has such a utility.
BTW, you mentioned Partition Magic. Did install Partition
Magic prior to loading Linux, and if so, did you create a rescue
disk?

:-( - But I have some hope that this will change. Once 8-way systems
becomes 'old news' and there are enough clones. This will bring me back
to my first argument: I would rather spend X$ on two weaker processors
than one very strong. This is because the price/performance is getting
steep near the state-of-the art for chips - whereas chips that have
already had the development cylcle paid for, tend to be cheaper, and
thus give much more bang-per-$ than fx. the Athlon (that may become
obsolete as I write this :-)

This has probably been touched on before, but being new to this newsgroup,
please bare with me. I'm running RH 6.1 along with this SB PCI128. The
sndconfig finds the card fine and sets it up. The problem is this: the
sound is very faint. I have to really crank up the ol' speakers to hear
anything. The only place I found to adjust volume is in Mixer, I believe.
I have that all the way up.
The interesting thing is, this is a 2nd install for various reasons and it
worked fine before. For the life of me, I can't remeber having to do
anything special to get it to work the 1st time.
I know this card is common so if anyone could point me in the right
direction, I'd much appreciate it
thanks

Go to http://www.freshmeat.net and look for "lmsensors". It's a kernel

While this looks like a scary error, it shouldn't affect what you do in
the slightest. The System.map file is mainly used when debugging a
kernel, and you're probably not doing that. If you're tired of seeing the
error message, then
# cp /usr/src/linux/System.map /boot/System.map
and the error will disappear.
