I'd like to buy an ALR Evolution Dual6 Pentium Pro to run FreeBSD on. Has any
one used ALR Pentium Pro-class machines to run FreeBSD? Are there any
general conflicts between FreeBSD and the P6?
Here are more specific specs.
The Dual 6 comes with one processor, with a slot for a second processor. Can
FreeBSD use the second processor efficiently, or at all?
The chipset is Intel 82450KX (OrionDT) PCI.
BIOS is Phoenix Upgradeable Flash BIOS
Thanks very much.
