But it > does not mean all IBM / HP / SM servers will work. I'd agree but would also add that "most will work ok" - especially from the eariler Xeon 5000/5100/5200/5300/5400 series. These systems have hardware which is well tested and developed through the years - it would be an anomaly to find a configuration that doesn't work. I have systems with all of the above CPUs on versions of FreeBSD from 6.x to 8.x, with all of the above vendors (well, not all CPU+Vendor combinations :) ) and not a single unsolvable problem. I had the most problems with blade servers. I'm writing this on a 2x 54xx system from SuperMicro.Received on Fri Apr 16 2010 - 19:15:11 UTC
