All Your Interrupts Are Belong To Somebody Else! the extra bits of tomfoolery involved in getting a second cpu to live in an architecture than never imagined more than one (daisy chained 8259a's, still?) may have consumed the available interrupts. Actually, I thought about this, and one problem with this theory ... right now, I have both serial ports and the parallel port disabled, which should free up 3/4 and 5 (or is it 7?) ... if I re-enable them, they come up fine with their respective IRQs ;( 3.

That sets the 2nd (16-bit) DMA channel IIRC. If you have the time I would be very interested in having more information about your configuration as I am contemplating building a similar SMP system. How much memory do you have installed and what use do you have for the system? Any information much appreciated.
