Topic: dual cpu motherboards??

[Charles Harmon]

Anyone using a dual cpu motherboard?  I am having stability problems with essg 4.1.2 running on a tyan tiger 230.  The install goes fine, post configuration goes fine and the initial boot seems fine.  The server it self will run for a period of time and them wham.......server freees and a bunch of hex code fills the console.  I would attach some of the log, but it does not appear to capture the crash.  Here are the specs:

Tyan Tiger 230 Motherboard
1 Intel Pentimu III 1000Mhz
Matrox G400 AGP Video
256 MB PC133 RAM
2 maxtor 7200 RPM ATA100 20GB Drives
IDE CDROM
2 3Com 3c905C nics

I have tried the uniprocessor kernel with the same results, nothing is obvious in the logs.  I have alos replace just about everything (nics, memory, hard drives) from a working machine with the same results.  Any advise is appreciated.

I used one for a time with no problems. Then came to the conclusion that it was a waste of resources. e-smith can carry quite a load with very little computing power. So unless you are running a very intensive large network my advise is to save your money. Use an old system for your server and use the power for cpu intensive applications like autocad, etc.
