We are suspecting that there is something wrong with the mainboard in 
this machine. We've got it to boot nicely using the 686-smp kernel in 
the package pool, but there are some very odd things happening (floppy 
drives disappear mid access etc).

We can't get a self compiled kernel to work in SMP mode. I'm suspecting 
an issue with the ServerWorks chipset.

Thanks Alvin for your time, your advice was a great help in determining 
that we were doing thngs the 'right way'.
