Miod, It's great to see that you're doing work on this....I had no idea the port had come this far. I have a fairly large Origin 300 system (24 processors) that I would love to see OpenBSD run on someday. To that end, I'm willing to assist in testing on this or any of the other SGI systems in my collection (including an Onyx2 Rack, Challenge L, etc).
Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help. Thanks for all of the amazing work you do! -Jesse On Thu, Feb 13, 2014 at 7:16 AM, Maurice Janssen <[email protected]> wrote: > Miod Vallat schreef op 2014-02-12 23:06: > > Hello, >> >> I've got two Origin 300 systems and a NUMA cable so I tried booting >>> bsd.rd.IP27 on them. >>> I did not expect the NUMA linked O300's to work but trying doesn't hurt, >>> so >>> here's the hinv -v and dmesg: >>> >> >> It is supposed to work, >> > > Great, didn't know that. > > > although only linked O200 have ever been tested, >> to the best of my knowledge.
