If I take that literally, then I can expect my a working machine
within 200 days with dma turned off. ;)
Thanks for the suggestion, Brucee, I'll turn dma on. I'll add it to
the installation guide.
Andrey, thanks for your help too.
Kenji Arisawa sent me a pccpuf config that has worked well for him and
that I plan to use.
Should anyone be following this thread and anticipates using the
fossil+venti option during an install, this should help. Thanks go to
Kenji Arisawa for the following config:
