I've just got a new box, an HP DC5750 with an Athlon X2 3800 but I
can't get SMP working. It *was* cheap :)

In make.conf I've got:
CPUTYPE?=athlon-mp
I've had problems getting ACPCI working, I just get a panic, so I'm
booting with it disabled.

Nothing else about CPUs in dmesg.
I had to bodge loader.conf to get more than 64MB working:
hw.physmem="803561472"
and I'm wondering if I need another bodge to get SMP working.
Hope you can help! TIA
BTW, I compiled STABLE with <64MB which I thought was fairly
impressive. It wasn't overly slow either.
