Dell pe1550 (smp) on RELENG_5 ?

[Robin P. Blanchard]

Anyone succesfully accomplished this ?
Seems I have to disable apic to get the box to sucessfully boot (otherwise
will hang), thereby disabling smp.

# cat /boot/loader.conf |fgrep -v "#"
beastie_disable="YES"
boot_verbose="YES"
ahc_pci_load="YES"
amr_load="YES"
if_fxp_load="YES"
kern.cam.scsi_delay=2000
kern.maxusers=0
hint.apic.0.disabled=1

# sysctl -a |fgrep smp
kern.timecounter.smp_tsc: 0
kern.smp.forward_roundrobin_enabled: 1
kern.smp.forward_signal_enabled: 1
kern.smp.cpus: 1
kern.smp.disabled: 0
kern.smp.active: 0
kern.smp.maxcpus: 16
debug.psmpkterrthresh: 2
