I've tried a couple of times to compile the kernel to enable SMP support, and it failed. I've set "options SMP" and "options ACPI_IO" in the kernal config, and disabled "cpu CPU_I386" and "cpu CPU_I486" or whatever the cpu options were, but no luck.
The first kernel I compiled made the pc power down halfway through the boot process, the second kernel just hung right after enabling the second cpu.
I'm using FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE, anyone have any ideas?

Don't know if it has anything to do with your issue but it did discuss ACPI. There are many links on google about SMP compiling. You might want to check it out.

Re: How to compile for SMP
I think you mean APIC, not ACPI. List the steps you took to compile the kernel and I will help. I had 5.0 running at home for a while. 4.8 right now.MeatBall wrote:"options SMP" and "options ACPI_IO"
