I have CPU: VIA C3 Samuel 2 (533.36-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin = "CentaurHauls" Id = 0x673 Stepping = 3 Features=0x803035<FPU,DE,TSC,MSR,MTRR,PGE,MMX> real memory = 528416768 (503 MB) running FreeBSD 6.2 without problems. The key here is NOT to set CPUTYPE in /etc/make.conf. Just use the defaults and you're fine. > A dmesg for the system is available at > > http://ntp0.goldmark.org/temp/dmesg > > Cheers, > > -j > > > -- > Jeffrey Goldberg http://www.goldmark.org/jeff/ Regards, -cpghost. -- Cordula's Web. http://www.cordula.ws/ _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
