RE: Debian SMP Problems?
I had a problem similar to this, and found out that the motherboard was the
problem. It didnt' support 1GB of ram, although the manual said it did.
Swapped in a different dual motherboard and the problem disappeared. Go
figure. I can't really remember the name of the board, but you should dump
the specs of your system to figure it out.

Subject: Debian SMP Problems?
I just tried installing a clean version of Potato on an SMP machine (Dual
Pentium III 450's) and the entire installation ran unbareably slow. After
multiple hours of installation, the system now runs equally as slow.
Executing programs, shell scripts, compiling, everything runs extremely
slow.
I thought it may be disk accessing, but FTP'ing works just fine.
I figured perhaps the stock Debian kernel has some SMP problems? I am trying
to compile a new kernel with SMP support but it is taking a while, just
wondering if anyone else has had problems. Thanks,
Danny
