Re: IBM xSeries 336 dual Xeon hangs on boot when APIC enabled



I'm trying to boot FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE/amd64 on an IBM xSeries 336 machine
with dual Xeons 3.2GHz installed.

The installation was successful, but
if I try to boot the SMP kernel, it hangs after detection of SCSI and ATA
devices (possibly when doing the initialization of the mpt0 RAID controller,
or when it tries to start the second CPU?).

Some time ago I was tried installation i386/FreeBSD on IBM x336 and x346. And i have successfull installation. I think amd64 is probally not right platform for this server.
