Hi everybody,
I'm new to UNIX and NetBSD in general.  I'm trying to configure a MP kernel on an L440GX+ Intel motherboard.  I'vetried using the MPBIOS option as well as the MPACPI option respectively with the same result.  I used the cpu* at mainbus? option both times and the ioapic* at mainbus? apid? option when I used MPACPI.  These are all set in the "GENERIC" config file (I renamed mine AOXOMOXOA) and commented out of GENERIC.MP (which I renamed AOXOMOXOA.MP).  I ftp'd the source tree before configuring, built the tools, etc. and did ./build.sh kernel=AOXOMOXOA.MP from /usr/src - which completes without errors.  I rename and mv the new kernel to /, renaming the old one to netbsd.old and reboot.  The dmesg output below is what I get regardless of whether I use MPBIOS or MPACPI. 

cpu1: starting - but at the end it says cpu failed to start

Any ideas?  This mb would only run FreeBSD-5.0-DP1 smp, other than that, nothing, in fact it would lock up bootingFreeBSD-5.0-release at the point where it waits for scsi devices to settle.  Never had any luck with 4.7 or 4.8 release from FreeBSD either, with pretty much the same outcome.
