Okay, the following definitely shows the
BIOS in this old Netserver is PNP. I ran
biosdecode on it and got this:

Can anyone tell me how to disable PNP in this
particular computer? I have no manual on it.
It's strictly surplus. I took it from a friend
primarily to learn about SMP, which I have in
the kernel and is working fine. The BIOS is pretty
bare bones, except in the section where you can
make available or reserve memory areas, interrupts,
ports, etc., for PNP. But, they're all set to be
available, the default, it looks like. I've googled
and searched all over HP's site, & can't find anything
about disabling PNP.Either it's not there or I flat
missed it. which is very possible.  Thanks for any
and all help I can get on this.
