I'm using the k8-smp version. I'd try generic, but there is no generic SMP, AFAIK (and having bought a >$500 dual-core chip, I damn well want to use it!) The problem I've always seen with > 2.6.12 is that after a short while, either Ethernet or SATA (with the promise chip) dies. I've filed http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=347412 on this (a while ago). I'm sort of curious why you use -generic instead of -k8; unless, of course, this is why. Well, if you don't experience this problem, I guess I should try booting w/o SMP support and seeing if its an SMP-only problem. > > One other thing: I'm using ECC memory, and have ECC enabled.
