Re: [LINUX-ABIT] Best BP6 BIOS (Was: Re: recommendation for large drive on hpt366?)

Greetings


I recently upgraded to the  NJ  BIOS, and now I can run 95MHz FSB (523
chip)
rock solid (for a week now, knock on wood).  I was able to download data
from a DLT tape onto my IBM ATA-66 drive (on the ata-33 IDE), analyze it
as it was coming with 97% CPU usage on EACH processor,  AND burn a CD
from disk
(Ricoh ATAPI in ide-scsi mode)  _simultaneously_, with no problems.  I
spent
a couple of days doing this, going on most of the work day, and so far
no issues
have arisen.  (apart from this silly need now to specify in LILO that I
have 128MB RAM).

before, with the 'stock' bios (from Nov 99), it wouldn't last a 1/2 hour
with any ONE of the above.
so needless to say, life is good (for now at least ...)

just my experience.  your mileage may vary.
