opteron notes

[Christopher McCrory <chrismcc pricegrabber com>]

Hello...

	So far taroon looks _excellent_!

I had problems using the install CD as a rescue CD.  most stuff broke
with, IIRC, /bin/bash or /bin/sh bad interpreter.  e.g. cd $MOUNTPOINT ;
chroot . ; mkinitrd bla bla

	Is anyone else having problems with adaptec scsi controllers?  This
might just be me though.  I'm using one install and switching
controllers. hence the rescue CD stuff :)

from RELEASENOTES:
Contact rhelv3-announce redhat com if you are interested in benchmarking
applications on pre-release Red Hat Enterprise Linux software.

Is this list close enough?  I am heavily benchmarking our stuff with
opteron(smp) vs. i686(smp) on taroon

As another poster noted, taroon looks very good, so good that I updated
our main development server to taroon from RH7.3.  So far everything is
working. :)

no 'mute rays.' And even if there were, waxed paper is
no defense.  I tried it.  Only tinfoil works.
