I've been searching through the linux-kernel and linux-smp mailing lists for
situations similar to mine, and there have been (as far as I can find) two
identical incidents reported, both by people with one CPU in the Asus
A7M266-D, a 2 CPU board. In my case, a single Duron (morgan core -
reportedly SMPable) and in the other guy's case, a single Athlon MP. Since
nobody else complains, I assume it's because the majority people who own the
A7M266-D also own 2 CPUs - which doesn't seem to cause problems. My
suggestion would then be that if you want to get an A7M266-D, make sure your
budget can accomodate 2 CPUs. :-)
I hope my input is helpful,
jon anderson
