This is excellent news. Based on your input and what I had found earlier, I made a couple of FreeBSD 9.0-RC3 kernels to play with the options, and I found that "device mptable" is needed for the FreeBSD/amd64 kernel to boot on the net6501. Anyway, it's good to know that we'll be able to build and use 64-bit kernels... but I doubt we can get "device mptable" enabled in GENERIC at this late stage of the 9.0 release cycle (we are at RC3). Cheers, Denis, for...@acm.org PS. Now onwards to find out why my USB 3.0 PCIe card is not working as expected. _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list Soekris-tech@lists.soekris.com http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
