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?).
I've just had a similar problem with an IBM xSeries 232 - it would not
boot with apic enabled.. I chased the problem down to the network
adapter (fxp) - and when disabling the planar ethernet in BIOS it would
boot with SMP.
I managed to get both NIC and SMP working by disabling a bunch of stuff
in the BIOS, fx both serial ports and also the floppy drive.
Your problem might not be related, but give it a shot !
