I absolutely agree with Jordan on this point. I'm having an increasingly
hard time keeping our lab running FreeBSD over Linux due to pressure from
higher-ups who aren't in the technical trenches with me and who don't
understand the very good technical reasons I have for running FreeBSD
here. On
I'd be more than happy to do the pestering if some one could write down
a detailed description of exactly how the TP's BIOS is non-compliant.
I don't know enough about the boot process and BIOS to write such a
description.

I see the same problem when trying to boot FreeBSD-3.0-RELEASE (or there
abouts) and later cdroms on my TP770.
I can boot FreeBSD-2.2.8 and earlier FreeBSD-3.0-SNAP cdroms just fine. I
think it has something to do with the new boot loader that went in just
before 3.0-RELEASE.

Hi all,
Has anyone yet tried running -current on a Xeon with 4GB RAM installed?
We're about to place an order for a Quad Xeon and would like to have 4GB
of RAM installed if it is feasible and/or possible to make this work with
-current.
Thanks for the help,
Tom
