We've had this discussion before. The right way even if you don't want to do full ACPI is to do just the minimal static boot tables and a SRAT.

SRAT is essentially just a two dimensional table with node distances. -Andi -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
